Hey 2010

Seriously,
I mean, I could us an excuse, and say I do a weekly podcast everyweek, there is no reason to do the written blog anymore. But the button is still on the web site, and to tell you the truth, sometimes I need it. Apparently not that often. It is hard for me to believe that my last written blog was in 2009. And I have not updated my web site, because, the shows I have booked are a way out, and I have several irons in the fire.. No excuse. I will get the sit updated pronto. The last time I submitted to this written blog, I had read and was inspired by an autobiography for George Carlin. Since then, I have read a book on the life of Chevy Chase, and am not on to a book about, and by Howie Mandell. Let me remind you ofcourse that I am still working my full time police job, along with my comedy career. I have to somewhat pay attention to my duties at the police job, anytime you might get killed, or have to kill, you should pay attention. I prefer nowadays to kill on stage, but there still is the matter of bills, and travel. Oh and food. I am still at writing and creating, and figuring out what my actual point of view and comedy voice is. I have inked the deal to return to my hometown Caledonia, NY, and do a second show for my fallen classmates, the Totsie Cook, Dan Coyle Scholarship. I am very happy, that we are going to be at Jones Hall, a much bigger venue, and that Mike Marino has agreed to do the show again, and at greatly reduced fee. Mike agreed to do a second show with me the Friday night before, so I am waiting for the contract to be signed for the Hochstein Music Academy in Rochester. This is a great venue, it is like a mini carnegie Hall. Theres no drinking, it is a theatre, and they have never had a comedy show event. This will be a great place for the Cop and the Con to debut in the city of Rochester NY. It is still a risk financially, in this kind of gig, as the producer, I have to rent the place, arrange for spot light, sound and black curtain, which they after they get cash. I have to secure a million dollar insurance policy, and then just sell tickets from 3,000 miles. Thats ok, I am dedicating a substantial budget to advertising this show, and am going to expect the best. Theres only one other real comedy club in Rochester, and it's in Webster. So with Mike Marino as the headliner, this show will sell out.
