I am currently writing a new act based around my most recent failed attempts at dating, travels and the world at large.I've also been inspired by my recent tour of the Grand Canyon. What? You don't see what's funny about it? That's why I'm a pro, and have a website. So there.

Club dates will be listed here soon so keep checking back. For now, enjoy the videos, and get yourself ready
         

Check back here soon for appearances and club dates.

My Prom Date Story A true story that I used to tell on stage.
     

One of the great parts about traveling and working with other comics are the "Road Stories" that get passed around. Here are two that I hears from other comics. I don't know how true they are, but who really cares...

When Don Rickles was first starting out, he got a gig opening for Frank Sinatra in Atlantic City. Rickles was sitting in the casino restaurant with a date when he saw Frank walk in. Rickles noticed Frank walk into the men's room and followed him in.

"Mr. Sinatra," he said. "My name is Don Rickles, I'm the comic opening for you tonight. I'm here with a date and it would really make me look good in front of her if you could come over to the table and say Hello."

Frank Replied, "Well, I really don't do that kind of thing," and walked out of the men's room.

Rickles returned to his table and was talking to his date when Frank walked over, put his hand on Rickle's shoulder and said "How ya doin', Don?"

Rickles looked up and said "Frank, how many times have I told you? Not when I'm eating!!"

 

This one was told to me by a comic who claimed he was there. I leave the story in first person perspective as it was told to me...

"I was working a club in Texas in the early 80's with Andrew Dice Clay. After the show we picked up a couple of girls from the club and went back to the condo that the club had put us in. Naturally, things moved to the bedrooms and through the paper thin walls we could hear Dice and the woman he was with in bed."

Dice: "Scream for me, Baby!"

Woman: "Oh Dice, you're the best. You're an animal! You're the KING!"

Dice: "Who's the boss?"

Woman: "YOU are, Dice, you are!!"

Dice: "WRONG! Tony Danza!!!"

 

I'll be posting club dates as soon as I get bookings straightened out. In the meantime I'm busy working on my book "With Love from the Lunatic Fringe." You can read a excerpt from it by clicking here.
