October & November Shows!!

Fall has come and so has a bunch of new things to for me to devote my time to. Right now my pal Sean Hart and I are recording our first full length Tartar Control Album. If you don’t know what Tartar Control is, here’s a link.  I think we’re going to call it “We’re Not Selling Anything” or “The Book of Tartar Control”. We’re not sure yet. What I do know is that it will have over 30 songs, some comedy sketch dialogue, and possibly SECRETS… This epic masterpiece or morman inspired punk rock is being recorded in my basement and is fueled by decaf Earl Grey tea with lemon and honey plus delicious BBQ! We’re thinking that it will be completely done by December. Woo!!

Also, it looks like I’ll be getting a monthly show at Meltdown Comics here in LA. My friend Sax offered me a character based comedy show where me and my friends could do all of our weird acts. I’m pretty excited, as most shows in LA outside of the big clubs claim to be alternative, but are really just stand up shows with comics dressed as hipsters. I think I can do something different. Something that is actually alternative but quality too. Or I may just be blowing big poofy farts out of my mouth. We’ll see. But that won’t happen until December, after the Tartar Control  album is done.

With all that said, I’m not doing as many shows around town as I was a few months ago. But I am going on two mini tours  and have a few gigs for October and November. Here they are!!

10/9- Tartar Control @ The Tomorrow Show, Midnight, $8

Frozen Walt Disney Pictures and Video

Well, Frozen Walt Disney was super fun and a huge success! It was a lot of work, but in the end I am very proud of it and now have a huge Disney-made cryogenic freezer residing in my living room. Slowly but surely, my eclectic comedy career is affording me to become the creepy clown man living in the abandoned fun house that I’ve always wanted to be. With every comedy project I take on, I seem to amass one more huge prop. Someday people will instinctually cross to the other side of the street when they near my house, as I laugh/barf uncontrollably from the eyehole of the giant foam rubber transvestite face that is the front siding of my home. A bright future indeed!  Until then, here’s the video from The Re-Animation of Frozen Walt Disney, as well as pictures! YAY!
