We flew (Southwest, of course!) into St. Louis, then drove the hundred miles to Springfield, IL– the state’s capital. We were expected there for two consecutive engagements at country clubs.
The Local Info packet in our hotel room said that there was a Funny Bone five minutes away. And, by golly, they weren’t lying. After our Friday night show, we hopped on over and caught the last half-hour of headliner Vince Morris.
It’s always great to encounter a fellow comedian on the road. We had seen Morris’ special on Comedy Central, we were intrigued by his Sellout Comedy Tour project. And we had met him once before! (At the Las Vegas Comedy Festival… so long ago– 2003!)
We’re back in the comfort of SHECKYmag HQ– Flying RAWKS!– and we’re working locally this weekend– at The Comedy Works in Bristol, PA. All is right with the world.
