Well actually I don't about how busy but alot of driving and checking into hotels and maybe trying to find time for a cocktail in between all of that.
Another great friend was up with me for the last few days, Pete Bougadis. this was a pretty fun few days. he flew into St Louis and we did a little partying there. We stayed at a nice hilton but were warned that don't stray to far to the left as it's not the best area, but the hotel was beautiful. So we went and partied it up that night and probably heard the best live band ever...Wow they were great. It was a good night and the Grand Marniers that they served were crazy. The next day we worked on some material and took it easy. It's weird the restaurants were all ok to smoke in so that was really crappy. We went to one place for dinner and it was cloudy from the smoke, I assume this is what a chineese underground poker hall would look and smell like. We left that shithole.
So then the next day we headed to Nashville. Wow what a beautiful city, it was awesome. So I did a set at some shifty little bar that the cab driver didnt even know where it was...Too funny, oh and the Driver was really hard to understand and he was eating his dinner on a regular plate while driving..Never seen that before. So the Club was really small and wasn't a comedy club but a bar and grill, haha...Yeah I know! The MC said that alot of people were showing up and we should stay, so we did. There was probably 40 people there and 20 were open mikers...Weird. I did my thing and they looked at me pretty weird. I was 3rd on and the first two people didn't do good at all, but koodos for them for trying. So I knew what I was looking at. It was brutal, I did get some laughs but I think because they were all fending for themselves it was tough. Pete said I was the best up there but he has to say that! I got over it really quick. The people were nice but wow thankfully there are clubs that are meant for just comedy after that. Some people were singing, reading poems and others just looked like a dear right before hitting them with your car.
So we left there and took in some of the nightlife...Wow was an awesome city, I really liked it. We got suckered into going to a strip joint and sold me on the idea that I have to bring my own booze. I'm not gonna get into too much details, but it was heaven. We brought a box a beer and they put it in a bucket of ice for us and that was it...Again very weird. If this was in Ottawa I probably wouldn't have left. Actually I probably wouldn't be alive...haha.
Ended up in Memphis last night and had a quick peak of Graceland. I don't know pretty rough town around that area, but still cool to see it. I was hoping to find a 5x white elvis suit to wear but no such luck. I could just imagine how awesome my package would look in white spandex...
I was great having Pete with me but I now found someone worst at singing than my cousin Patrick, holy shit Pete give it up. You have no idea what 10 hours in a car with someone singing every song, but not knowing more than 4 words combined. It was soo funny, he is a good hummer tho! That sounded bad. Ok he humms them ok I guess. Oh and he needs to pee like a girl, every 9 miles, haha It's the 19 gallons of coffee that he drinks. But man it was soo good that he was able to make it, with a pregnant wife at home and all that...Thanks Pete and Ellen...
I'm now in Little Rock, Arkansas...It's pretty nice so far, and it's St Pattys so might have to check out more.
I will be alone this week until PooPoo arrives on friday in Houston, but it will be good for some alone time. I'm gonna download like 4000Gigs of porn and walk around naked...Might even do a full body shave, we'll see the sky's the limits.
But seriously it will be good to write some new jokes, work on my worst site ever and figure out what's next for me. Im heading to Louisiana on wednesday, so that will be cool, I always wanted to try crawfish.
So that's about it for now, I'll try to be better with the daily posts..
Peace
Bob
