Just got back to the hotel from the first night at the Traverse City Comedy Club. It is just how I remember it, only the mic works now. I didn't get any pictures taken, but I promise I will take some after the Saturday shows. They have had some wait staff changes since I had been there last back in 2004. All in all it's a great place to perform.
Well, I'm going to relax and get some sleep. I will write more after the next shows.

I'm sitting here at the Best Western in Petoskey, MI watching the snow come down. I heard we are supposed to get over a foot here within the next 24 hours or so. I hope this doesn't hinder the show too much tonight. Last time I was here City Park Grill was hoppin'. Tonight they will have to ride their snowmobiles to the show.
Last night I worked with Mark Matusof in Muskegon. Small crowd, but we had a good time. They did karaoke after the show and I got Mark to sing a classic, "I think I love you" by the Partridge Family. Hey, I figured that if this guy could play Hendrix on the mandolin he could do about anything! Just for the record; Mark can play the hell out of the mandolin! Check out his website on the links page.
I still don't know who I am working with the rest of the week. Tonight is City Park Grill and then Friday & Saturday at the Traverse City Comedy Club.
I added a picture of Mark & myslef as well as a couple pictures a friend took of the show in Eddyville, IA. I will try to take more pics tonight and update the website either tonight after the show or first thing in the morning. Keep checking back.

Ok, I'm back from doing tonight's show. About 40 people actually came out in the crap weather to see us. Kudos to them! They were a very fun audience. Everybody at City Park Grill was great. I worked with Bil Benden and will be working with him through the rest of the weekend. He is hilarious! Totally my type of humor. I will be adding a link to his website later... I forgot to write it down. I did get one of the bartenders to take a picture of us with Jason Septic of the club. It has been added to the picture pages.
If I have Internet access at the hotel in Traverse City I will do more updates. Otherwise you will have to wait for further pics and stuff. Last time I was there I didn't, but it is a different hotel this trip.
If you are in the area be sure to stop by and check out one of the four shows this weekend in Traverse City. 8:15 & 10:15 both Friday and Saturday. The snow is supposed to quit by 6pm Friday, so don't use that as an excuse... If I can make it there, so can you!
