So I did a set at the funny stop, which was a pretty cool place. The Crowd was a little rough, but I worked through it. It was an amature night which was alright cause I got to see other people in the same boat. The owner Pete couldn't have been any more accomodating and introduced me to alot of people. It was a popular spot and alot of famous people worked there. It was where Steve Harvey did his first set and where Tim Allen figured out his niche with the whole grunting thing...So that's awesome.
The Local Dj was the Host and he was a hoot as well. We got some good footage and interviews afterwards. The owner approached me and asked me to sign the back wall of the stage of Comics. That was really cool that he asked me cause I was the only comic he asked that night. He was impressed that it was only my third or fourth time on stage. Alot of people approached me afterwards with comments and they seemed to all like the act.
The Club was attached to another Bar and the bartender Jodi(probably one of the sweetest cute girls Ive ever met) came up and said she loved it. We then spent the night in her Bar..So Yvan and I got to hang with the locals and they couldn't have been any nicer. Yvan even got approached by a dude and he said"Not to sound queer or anything but you are pretty" I almost died and gave me jokes pretty all day for our 5hr drive to Indianapolis today.
We are here in Indy now and taking it easy tonight after the shit show last night. Going through some jokes and updating things. I uploaded a little piece from the set too. I know it's short but I can't throw all my jokes online..Gotta keep that for later.
Anyways the trip has been amazing so far but it's tough living out of suitcases, I've been staying at Hampton Inns and they have all been great, Thanks Nuala!
Got a show tommorrow night in St Louis and looking forward to it for sure.
Yvan is heading back to Sudbury on Friday morning at 6:30am..yeah I know..that's crazy, can't wait for the 4am drive to the airport. Pete Bougadis is flying in on Friday afternoon, so that will be another crazy week.
Jeff was going to come after that, but backed out today due to work issues. It's too bad we would have had a blast in Tennessee and Louisiana, Texas..but I understand. Bummer tho.
Gotta go, the three pounds of ribs that I had are needing to escape..
Peace out, Thanks for reading! Missing everyone back home.
