Austin's Hour Set May 15th, 2010

Oh man it was really groovy. Killer! Rad! Everyone on the show did a good job. Boogity Boo!

Doing an hour comedy set at Austin's!!

Come check me out at Austin's coffee and film in O-town on January 18th at 9pm with Dirt McCoy and Sean Moore. I will be doing comedic stand-up and songs and of course a little koo kooish solo improv/venue work. Austin's is located at 929 West Fairbanks Avenue in Winter Park. Hope to see you there!

Austin's 12-12-09

Did one hour, 10 minutes at Austin's Coffee and Film in O-town. Headlined with Dirt McCoy (104.1, straight up funny and raw), Kyle Rogers (Funny-eclectic-musical), Sean Moore (Boston Breed Family Funny) and Clayton Anderson (Stanhope, Funny).
I did some material from "Koo Koo", crowd work, improv, and some new written bits and songs.
Was good to be on stage for that long again and keep the laughs coming, excluding trying to remember my rewritten Newhart bit. Honestly, I could have done without about 10 minutes of my set so, a bodacious hour "Dobbins style".
All comedians did a rad job!! Had a lot of fun!

9-2-09 Bonkerz!!

I Performed live at a Bonkerz in Altamonte Springs, FL last night. It was old school comedic performance art that was not well planned (sometimes it's that kind of night). I protested David Brenner's Merch application on his website by "nonsensing" to the sounds of "Bolero"(which I claimed David Brenner did not fancy) because I will never be able to go on Johnny Carson 150+ times like David Brenner did.

It was anti-70's/80's semantic joke structure to the max! I performed with num-chucks in a gorrilla mask, played recorder, and keyboard melodies in C minor, had a marionette puppet fart drum beats, called on a spirit of a relative's bedroom acoustics to come to altamonte springs to make my keyboard sound louder and closed it out with a reggae riff.

Guess what? the camera didn't record it, so that means it was only meant for the audience of that evening. I know people were moved (even if just their bowels).

Living Room 8-8-08

This was a pleasant night in the world. The doors were open to the cafe and the crowd was good in spirit and in size considering "cafe size" of the cafe. Everyone was funny. Abbi did straight stand-up and Luke did a commited character called "Shock Therapy". He could have been called any name or said anything because of the commitment of his facial expression.
My set was clean and chill with some improv at the top and in the middle. I have my set recorded and it may be the first one I extract a chunk from to put on YouTUBE.
The show was very enjoyable.
