Well done at the Trop

The audiences at Brad Garrett’s Comedy Club at the Trop got a lot of bang for their buck last night– Jimmy JJ Walker, Traci Skene, Geechy Guy, headliner Mike Loftus and “Welldone Comic” Bobby Henline.

Henline was unique among the comedians onboard as he is the only one of them who has been burned over 35 per cent of his body.

From the Dec. 26, 2009 NPR piece on Henline:

A roadside bomb hit the Army convoy truck Henline was driving in Iraq nearly three years ago. He spent months recovering inside the burn unit at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio and went through dozens of surgeries. During the most difficult days of his recovery, he tried to maintain his sense of humor, telling jokes to his doctors and therapists.

Henline is a super nice guy. The waitstaff bought him a honkin’ sheetcake that said, “Thanks for serving our country!” There were a lot military (active and former) in the house. Facebook Henline to keep track of his upcoming appearances. Or, better yet, go to BobbyHenline.com!

The Male Half is doing a feature spot at the club tonight, second show.
