Totsie Cook/Dan Coyle Scholarship Show

September 18th, Jones Hall Caledonia Ny, Saturday Night. Please come, this is going to be a great show, for a great cause. Jones Hall, is opening the doors at 6pm for food and beverage, and the show starts promptly at 8pm.. This is a special show, the class of 75 , friends and family lost Totsie way too early, and the Totsie Cook scholarship was created. Classmate Dan Coyle, pictured above, would help raise money for the scholarship through the farm, and pumpkin patch each year with the kids. Last year, we lost Dan in a tragic accident. Dan and I were both class clowns back in school, I remember he and I getting sent to the principals office, when we decided to start combing our hair in unison. Who knows we could have started synchronized hair combing in the Olympics. To top things off this year for our 2nd comedy show, we have Dan Coyle jr, flying in from Chicago, to sing a few songs in honor of his dad, this will be a special night. I don't know when we will be able to get national headliner Mike Marino to come back out to Caledonia, I was able to get him committed to our show early, he is in high demand and selling out all over the country. The show last year was sold out at the Caledonia Country Club, and we had to turn some folks away at the door. Please buy early either on line or through Loree Harrington, Gail at Jones Hall, or Cliff Yates sr. go to the web site home page for ticket details, see you at the show !!!!

Saturday September 18,2010

Saturday September 18, is quickly approaching, I am so thankful that I have the opportunity to be going back to my hometown of Caledonia New York, and put on a comedy show, which will benefit the Totsie Cook/Dan Coyle Scholarship fund. Last year we had a fantastic show, at the Caledonia Country Club, it was a sell out, and we had to turn people away at the door. Totsie and I were good friends, both from the Cal Mum Class of 75. Last year was a tough year to be putting on the show, as we lost another classmate Dan Coyle in a tragic accident. We not only dedicated the sow to Totsie and Dan, but also another class of 75 classmate, Jerry Forsyth, who we also lost too soon. It seemed very healing, to get together and remember, and spend time together and laugh too. This year we have moved the show to Jones Hall, so we should be able to pack in 350 plus. I am very happy, that this I can bring back with me, Mike Marino, this guy starred in a lot of national commercials, he's done sketch comedy for Jay Leno for 15 plus years, and has been a national headlining touring comedian for many years. Last year he really made the show fantastic. I hope everyone who can from Caledonia, can come to this show.. Gail Milner, had pulled out all the stops to make this show as good as it can get,, we have tables, food and drink. She is opening the doors at 6pm, so folks can mingle, talk and eat. Please buy your tickets early, we want everyone to get a ticket, and we want to tally our total for the charity ahead of time, so we can give the big check on the night of the show, along with the real check. Please buy your tickets on line at the web site, or call Loree Harrington, or my Dad, who has tickets, and Gail at Jones Hall.

September 17 show Caledonia, NY

It's getting close, September 17, Friday night, this is going to be a special show at Jones Hall, 366 Leicester street, Caledonia, NY. All the proceeds are going to an organization, "The American Federation of Police and Concerned Citizens". When I was looking for a charity to do our show, in honor of my friend, fallen Livingston County Sheriff's Deputy Jim Chiverton, I was contacted by his son Jason, who referred me to this organization, that gave Jim's sons thousands of dollars in scholarships. Thats all Mike and I needed to hear, to make this our charity. Last year at the Caledonia Country Club show,, I was really moved, when I was face to face with many of my former deputy partners from Livingston County who came to the show. I have nothing but fond fond memories of my five years with the Livingston County Sheriff's Department ! This year with this show being dedicated in honor of Jim, I hope to see and spend some time with many of my old friends.. Please come and support this show. Retired Deputy, and photographer Larry Tetamore will be at the show taking photos for anyone to purchase later, his son Mike will be opening the show, with some of his own comedy. We have national headliner Mike Marino coming to the show, this is amazing!!! please google Mike Marino comedian, and check him out, he is one of the best in the world!!!

Steven's Steakhouse

I have taken the handle on my next big big fundraiser charity event, with me, opening for the man, Mike Marino. This show is going to be at Steven's steakhouse, which is a beautiful location in commerce. This charity is near and dear to my heart, because the money will be given in the name of a friend of mine who was killed in a car accident, delivering a subpoena on his own time. He was such a great guy, and when he got out of the service, he would ride with me at the Livingston County Sheriff's dept., he was a car salesman at the time. His father and my father used to work together on the same department. Jim's only dream at the time was to become a Livingston County Sheriff's department. He finally got on, and I trained him, and we used to work sister cars on the midnight shift. In 1983 I left to join the Los Angeles county Sheriff's department, and we lost touch. In 1987 while trying to deliver a subpoena in Rochester NY, he was killed by a wrong way driver on the expressway. This charity we are doing the show in commerce for, gave several scholarships to his boys. We are doing another show in September, in Rochester, where we will give another check in Jim's name, where is wife and boys will be present.

Headlining the Downtown Comedy Club

Well it was great headlining the downtown Comedy Club in downtown LA ofcourse. A little natural nervousness, because on this night I was the guy. I am so use to opening for Mike Marino and being the feature, it was a little different feeling being the headliner. But I loved it !. It was a pretty good crowd, not as big, I think because it was the big fight night, Maryweather against Sugar Shane Mosley, and i know so many people who were staying home to watch the fight. I sometimes enjoy performing for people I don't know at all and have not seen me,, you get a totally sincere reaction. Not that you don't get a real reaction from friends and family, but because they know you, the reaction sometimes is more readily geared to acceptance and laughter. Which is great !,, I guess thats the ideal, make 6 million people your fan and friend !,,, Ok back work !!!

Downtown Comedy Club in Los Angeles

Tomorrow night headlining the Downtown Comedy Club, in Los Angeles. A big thank you to Kevin Garnier for having me headline this show!. Looking forward to it, after a great run opening for Mike Marino in Laughlin Nevada. Some great new stuff came out of the laughlin shows, so these gems and more to come out at Tomorrow Nights show. This will be one of my raw shows, I will have to give myself a review on this type of show. See everyone tomorrow night!
