on the road again
it is the first of june, summer just starting. dogs are out in their room chewing on bones, pool was inviting so i took its offer up and now i am taking a break from packing for a 4 week road trip. (speaking of dogs, i give maverick, the great dane, cow femur bones and he EATS them. listening to that dog's jaws literally crushing a bone the size of our leg bone, if not a little bigger, is one of the reasons i don't worry about rhonda when i am on the road)
george burns has always been my idol in comedy for what he said way back when; "i can't die, i'm booked." that is what keeps me healthy, keeps me happy and i truly believe keeps me alive...i am booked. solid for the rest of the year. matter of fact, when i get back i will start booking 2010.
all that being said, i will only be posting my feeble ramblings on here every couple of days or so because my traveling computer is on the blink but i should be able to use the clubs or the hotels...we shall see. not that i have anything to say anyway.
i will be in indy this week at the downtown crackers club, bloomington indiana on monday and then louisville comedy caravan through that week and then off to dayton for wiley's, which is one of my favorite clubs. it pays very little and the crowds are small but the owner is one of the all time good guys, the staff is great and the crowds, though small, are as hip as any you could want..they come for comedy and they know the difference. dave chappel used to come in there to watch my show. there is another club in dayton but wiley's gets the best comics because they also know the difference and would rather work for less than work a corporate club which is only in the business of selling liquor and doesn't really give a shit about the comics or the show per se as long as those drinks are flowing. then i fly home for ONE day and then off to reno for catch a rising star. all in all it makes for a long month but some good money, good clubs, good friends to see and good times to be had. my grand daughter, paris, is coming to one of the shows with her boyfriend. she saw me for the first time early this year in mrytle beach and now is hooked on comedy.
well, my friends, be well, be safe and for those who play poker may all your flops be good.

Thanks for letting me know you're going to be at Wiley's. Since I know soon enough to make plans, chances are I'll be there.
