I Will Be Getting My Ass Kicked on the Streets of Chicago

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008

This Saturday I’ll be getting my ass kicked on the streets of Chicago.

Not for real though! Silly!

I’m filming a web series that I mentioned before this weekend and my character steals this other character’s underwear and then gets beat up for it. How inticing does that sound? You can’t wait to watch it, can you? I don’t want to talk about the idea of being typcast for this character, for that would mean the director found my audition so believable that he actualy imagined me having a background of stealing underwear. Yikes.

So that’s going on this Saturday. This Friday night, however, I’m in the 2nd round of Mikey-O’s Last Loco Standing Comedy Contest at the Watra Nightclub on the Southside of Chicago at 47th and Pulaski. It was a blast last Friday and I moved on and it’s down to 6 very funny comics. Voting is based on audience ballots, so come out and vote for me this Friday (and hopefully several more Fridays in September if I keep moving on.)

Tonight, I have a show at The Spot at 4437 N. Broadway. It starts at 8pm and is totally free. My friend Josh Alton set it up, so it will be a great show.

I know this list is completely out of order, but I also have a show at the wonderfully rustic Cigars and Stripes on Saturday night at 10pm. This one is $5 and is with my good friends Brian Dejka and Dan Brennan. So come see that. Here’s a wacky picture of those two comics and the owner of Cigars and Stripes, Ronnie Lottz.

In conclusion, check my shows page for the right order of these awesome shows. Also check out and keep checking out my videos section, where I’ve put up some new vids and will continute to be putting up some new vids. Oh and pictures. I’ve got some new pictures here and there. All of these links are at the top of the website too under my banner. I don’t know why I’m putting them here, too. I’m an overdoer. Ladies, you heard that right.

9021-Uh Oh! I’m Sorry, I Couldn’t Resist.

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

The new 90210 is missing one very important person.

Right? Andrea? Where the hell is she? She should easily be the old woman who’s sleeping with teenagers in the new 90210 spinoff. I think they’re just saving her up for her own show called ‘Drea, where she teaches young actresses how to play characters that 10-15 years younger than they really are. Sick burn, I know, but is Gabrielle Carteris really going to read this? Quick trivia, she studied mime. MIME. Oh and by the way, that autographed picture of her above isn’t actually mine. I found it on the internet. I traded mine for one of Jason Preistley’s denim shirts years ago.

I am excited that these numbers are back in the title of a show. How many good number-titled shows are out there? One Tree Hill? Jon and Kate Plus 8? …Numbers? I guess there’s a lot. But none of them compare to the zip code where Dylan’s dad blew up in, and then came back from the dead in a later season. Luke Perry must have deuced his khakis when he read that script back in the late 90s.

I don’t know why I have watched this show. I’ve seen almost all the episodes and I’m a dude and I was like 5 when it came out. But my mom and sister watched it and my dad wouldn’t always let me watch Married With Children. So I got screwed. Damn Bundys and their bathroom humor.

In conclusion, I have faith in the new 90210. I hope they mix it up. I hope it stays ridiculous. And I hope Jenny Garth gets naked.

On a completely unrelated note, I’m doing a show at Cigars and Stripes next Saturday night with two of my buddies and the show is sure to please. Here’s the flyer.
