Setup

For years, I’ve wondered if I have what it takes to perform stand-up comedy. I’ve done quite a lot of theatre, sketch/improv, and writing of all kinds, but the mere thought of getting onstage—by myself—and performing jokes that I had written has always given me the sweats.

 I’m tired of wondering. I’m taking the plunge and seeing what happens. I’ll post video of my open-mic appearances (and, hopefully, any actually gigs), so I can share what I’m doing with anyone who cares, and so my progress will be here for all to see.

 Many jokes you’ll see numerous times as I refine. Sometimes you’ll get absolute garbage, I’m sure. Sometimes a gold nugget or two. I haven’t a clue how this is going to turn out. Find out with me, and be sure to let me know what you think along the way.

 STAY TUNED: A clip of my very first open-mic experience (along with a few of my post-set comments) is on the way.

    I remember when I discovered Wayne Graham. I was walking to work and he stopped me and offered to kick my ass … for free. I knew I was going to like this guy.

    I couldn’t in good conscience ask you to pay me for something I would have enjoyed so thoroughly.
