A TIME TO KILL: Kansas City Here I Come…

And here we go again…..

So I tried to start an unofficial tour two years ago.  It was a slight success, if you want to call coming up with a name for a tour no one gave a damn about an success .  I was on the road as the opening act for the legendary Paul Mooney and decided to start a tour that focused on the feature act.  Because to be honest, no one gives a fuck about the middle act, except the middle act.  The clubs don’t give two shits if the middle act shows up or not.  Their main focus and respect is centered on the headliner.   Which means the feature and host can die in a plane crash, unless the feature knows the Headliner personally.

In January I parted ways from Paul, and tried to focus on not featuring for anyone.  I’m still on that path, but these it’s a little difficult at times.  Comedy clubs don’t believe in booking funny.  They believe in booking what sells even if the people don’t laugh.  It’s become a circus and they book attractions pretty much.

So I have made it a point to do a tour regardless if I’m headlining or featuring, it’s my fucking tour.  The tour is titled “A TIME TO KILL”.  I put it in God’s hands and pray it will catch on and become a special.  The next stop for the tour is Kansas City, MO.  I played the club in January of 2007 with Mooney during the week of the Super Bowl.  You can only imagine how crazy that was.  But I do remember it being five degrees outside and my ass froze up and I shit ice for three days.  Anyway, I come back to KC a year and some change later with Arnez J, but not before I headline Wednesday night on my own.  I’ll be on the local radio stations promoting the show, first time that has happened for me.  So I have to show I can get people to come out based on my personality.

I’m on my grind world, quite rock star coming to town.

Ok boys and girls, I will do better about posting more up to date blogs on this site. It’s not like I don’t want to, I just side tracked a lot of the time because this shit don’t pay like I would like it to. That’s just pretty much real talk there. For those who don’t know I have a MYSPACE page. Come by and check that off.  Please guys, have a shirt on if you request me.  Do it for me ok. I think it’s federal law to have one a myspace page . Martin Luther King Jr., requested me the other day so I don’t see why you don’t have one. So anyway on my myspace page I have a GCAST podcast that I will also try to keep updated once a week, twice if some really amazing shit happens. But for the most part every Monday, I will try to post something for you nice folk to listen to.  It may not always be funny, but it will be something. I take that from the Tyler Perry school of sitcom.  House of Payne isn’t always funny, but it is saying something.

I’m also in the process of shooting my own show that I hope will get some sort of distribution on the web. I’m black so there is no way they will give me my own show.  Maybe it will be released on itunes or something. But it’s nothing to make a big deal about. Pretty much the same format like the “Puffy Is Poison” video.  Only this time it will a story or set up for the rants I guess. Not sure yet, still trying to figure it out. But whatever it is, I promise to do my best to make it funny.

I’m also campaigning alone with Obama, but not for the White House. I’m campaigning to get people to get on the phones and call their local comedy club, and request to bring me to your city. That’s right ladies and gentlemen. If you have a Improv or Funny Bone or any other club. Hit me on myspace for a number and contact in your area, so we can get something new and different in your clubs. Sorry no dick and pussy jokes, but I do have original thought, which I believe will go a long way. Let’s make this happen. I promise more videos and more funny.

Stay tuned folks

And yes I’m truly thinking of selling “Puffy Is Poison” T-shirts. But all proceeds will go to Day 26. They need it. Feedback is needed.
