So just finished a set in Dayton Ohio at the famous Wiley's comedy club, and it went really Good. I'm actually pretty pumped now and thinking that I like this comedy thing.
The day started off a little crazy, cause when we pulled into town a Severe Tornado warning was on so that was a little nutz. I wanted to bolt myself to the Hotel, whereas Lee wanted to chase the motherfucker down...No Thanks. Luckily it missed us cause I could do some major damage if I lifted off and thrown into shit. My weight alone would wipe out a small city.
So we left and got a little lost but made it just in time. They let us right in and upon entering we knew that this was a Comedy Club in it's rawest form. Signed pictures of Stars everywhere and the owner is a comic who writes for the Bob and Tom Show. This is the place that I was looking for from day one. Wow just amazing.
It was surprisingly busy for a Sunday night, but I now know why after watching the Headliner John McDonnell from LA. He was hilarious. I could watch him go for hours. He's a great comic with over 40 television appearances. I told him what I was doing with the tour thing and he wished me luck before going on stage.
The set went actually really well, I missed a few jokes but I got my point across and the audience seemed to really to enjoy it. As a matter of fact after my set alot of people approached me to say that they really liked it. Right after my set John pulled me aside in the lobby and congratulated me. That was really nice and I couldn't thank him enough. Lee was able to record some of the little interview that we had so that was great.
All in all a successful night and made some great contacts, I got to speak to some other local comics and they couldn't be any nicer. Wow I really like this shit...I just gotta keep writing.
The only Bummer is that it's Lee's last night with me and he couldn't have been more helpful and supportive. He's been amazing at making sure I do my duty and Blog, etc...he's the best wingman a friend can have....Thanks bud.
He's flying back tommorrow and another friend Yvan is meeting me in Cleveland. A busy week is ahead and I'm excited.
Thanks for Reading...SMB
Peace
Bob
