Bad Grocery Store Advice

Kellen Erskine is a breath of fresh air in the stand-up
comedy field.
His style is a high-end snark, acute observational
skills and a very refined sense of humor.
He has some serious humor creating skills on
hand, almost ninja like.
This is a classic bit…


The Other Educated Monkey

A very interesting piece by the great Ivor Biggun.
He’s a British icon, king of the double entendres, and
a gentleman through and through.
Crafty with a lyric, and a pretty decent story teller.
He aspires to retire, in a well protected environment.
That just might work out.
I love to play this on the show…


Alimony

This is a special song that I just played on the show.
Superstars galore in this one.
Shel Silverstein wrote it.
The principal singers are the late, greats Mel Tillis,
Jerry Reed, and Waylon Jennings with the still
active Bobby Bare.
Every last one of them is a bonafide star.
Jerry Reed is one of only a handful of Chet Atkins
Certified Guitar Players ever given that status.
He was also a decent actor and starred in a few flicks
back in the 1970’s.
Mel Tillis was a very successful singer songwriter for
many years, and one of the first “outlaw” C&W artists.
Waylon Jennings personified the “outlaw” image and
was quite a legend as well.
Bobby Bare was all that and more.
Shel even sings back-up!
The gang has thinned but their material lives on.
And that is as it should be…
