Darryl Damn

I met Darryl this summer one of my first times going up. I will never forget hearing his crazy laugh from the stage. Darryl is hilarious on and off stage and is a real down to earth guy. I appreciate all his advice when he gives it.

Uptown Comedy Corner

I been performing at Uptown Comedy Corner this week and I been meeting some Dope comedians. I also have been learning a lot and have had many experiences. I got a chance to perform many comedians all who have been helpful in there own way. I haven't been booked yet but I have been taking a stab at this open mic thing.

Throwback Thursday

This thursday and for the next couple of Thursdays I plan on doing something a little different. In stead of highlighting traditional Stand up comedians i will take a look at some of my favorite members of the Not Ready for Primetime Players. This week it will be Garrett Morris. You may know him as uncle Junior from The Jamie Foxx Show others may know him as Stan Martin's boss on Martin, but Garrett was the only black cast member of the original SNL cast in 1975.Often history looks at him as a stereotype and the token black member of the cast.This has been satired by In Living Color.

Here is some Christmas cheer from the OG SNL cast

It helps when your Advisor is a Comic

I been meaning to post more spotlights on comics I actually know. Followers don't worry more original content is coming very soon. I have big plans for 2010.
One of the main reasons that I do comedy is my adviser and mentor in the game Marc LaMotte. Marc is a vet, in the stand up game. Marc was the 2009 winner of the Athens Last Comic Standing competition. He is a really good guy and a funny comedian. He has some jokes that I always find funny definite classics in my eyes. Check out Marc LaMotte on rooftop comedy and who still uses? Myspace

The Throwback Thursday about Nothing

Everyone that knows me can tell you that I am a huge fan of Jerry Seinfeld. One of my earliest memories is watching Seinfeld with my mother. I remember when my teacher asked our fourth grade class what happened on the last episode of Seinfeld I was the only person in the class that was able to tell her every event from the water in the ear to the water out of the ear. My softmore year of college the one thing that brought my 6 roommates together was our love for Seinfeld. The thing that I learned the most through Seinfeld is observational humor and how he makes everything out of nothing. That is why the show based on his stand up is often called the show about nothing. Also, Seinfeld co-creator Larry David is responsible for one of my all time favorite shows Curb Your Enthusiasm on which this season they did a full Seinfeld reunion.

I used to love the small bits of standup either before or after each sketch.

The ultimate for a hip hop head and Seinfeld fan like myself is one of my favorite rappers Wale created a Seinfeld themed mixtape. In this tape fellow sneaker head used the iconic pictures of the Seinfeld cast feet as a cover and classic moments from the show to enhance his tape.

Throwback Thursday!

Clerow Wilson Jr., known professionally as Flip Wilson, (December 8, 1933 – November 25, 1998) was an American comedian and actor. Time magazine featured his image on their cover and named him "TV's first black superstar". During the 1960s, Wilson became a regular at the Apollo Theater in Harlem and was a favorite guest on The Tonight Show, Laugh-In, and The Ed Sullivan Show.
When I was in the third or fourth grade I remember our family first getting TV Land and my Mother, Father, and Grandmother was watching the Flip Wilson Show. I was amazed that in the early 1970's Flip was able to have his own reality show that featured black and white music artist. Also through this show I was able to see comedians like Bill Cosby and Richard Pryor. If it was not for the success of the Flip Wilson Show who knows if there would have been a Richard Pryor Show, In Living Color, Chappele's Show, or Wild'N Out. I later read that George Carlin was a writer on the Flip Wilson Show. Flip had many characters but none is more infamous than Rev. Leroy and Geraldine.
