Cruises

The late, great John Pinette with one of his best pieces!
Highly descriptive, very enthusiastic, always funny, John’s
in his element here, a cruise ship with a buffet.
I was at this show, he was very humorous but he looked like hell.
He had just lost a ton of weight and he was tired and drawn.
His material was superb though, as was almost always the case.
I miss that funny man…

Texas Chainsaw Square Dance Massacre

The Fools with an upbeat little ditty about barn dancing,
courting your favorite gal, and death!
Not really in that order, it matters not.
Mike Girard has what it takes, a cool singing style
and some superb tiger print underpants.
I kid you not, I interviewed the band a while back
and that’s how he was dressed.
Just underpants, nothing else.
It was a hoot, we were eating from a bucket of
hot chicken wings and loving every minute of it!
Gotta love this band…

The Hostage

This is a killer piece of dark comedy from Kurt Weitzmann!
I love his material, I wish he’d put out lots more.
Someone requested it on this week’s show, obviously a
person of high standing and even higher intellect.
Or just a really sick human being with a hankering
for painful situations.
Eat something, it’ll help calm you down…

The Sketch Artist

The Naked Gun 2 1/2 with Leslie Nielsen as
Frank Drebin and George Kennedy as Capt. Ed
Hocken!
This scene is typical of the entire movie, a
very funny parody of law enforcement and all
its peripherals.
Lost his hat, almost lost his head…
