The Sonic-Simon Comedy Weekender was an absolute blast. Sean and I both returned to Knoxville (and by proxy, our academic careers), so neither of us have a whole lot of time to stop and actually give a proper tribute to all the excellent humans who gave us shows, good times, and/or places to crash since … Continue reading

The SONIC-SIMON COMEDY WEEKENDER (coming March 18 – 24)
For those of you who haven’t met Sean Simoneau or seen him perform, you’re missing out. Since he moved to Knoxville last year for the same reason I did (throwing time/money in some proportion at a large, prestigious institution in exchange for a degree of some sort), he has been a major pillar in the … Continue reading
For Boston, For Boston
Greetings from the cold, windy, expensive, wet, crowded, and still somehow greatest city in the world, Boston. I’m actually sitting in a living room now in Natick. The last time I was in this town for more than an hour was 28 years ago. I don’t remember a whole lot about Natick from back then, … Continue reading
Welcome to 2015 and (other peoples’) Stories from the Road
It’s odd that the more I’m forced to write and be creative off of the internet, the more generic my post titles have gotten. Maybe it’s just me. Anyway, I wanted to take this opportunity to throw up some fuzzy statistics from 2014 and to give profuse thanks to some good people down Alabammer way. … Continue reading
Southern Schwing This Weekend
Are you in Alabammer? Well, then come and hang with me as I headline a couple shows in your state with some wonderful people! And then on New Year’s Eve I’m headlining a tour fundraiser for some Knox-friends at the (new-management-blessed) Longbranch Saloon on the Strip. All shows are at 9pm. I hope everyone made … Continue reading
Lexington, KY
Shortly after I graduated from college in 2005, my friend Adam and I decided, as a lark, to switch our “Locations” on Facebook to Lexington, KY. He found a drive-through liquor store for both of us to claim on our profiles that we worked at. I didn’t believe that drive-thru liquor stores actually existed. Either … Continue reading
Skeletal December Update
I’m gonna do a hand-written schedule and put it on the internet like a whimsical person, but for now, here’s a quick bump: THURSDAY 12/11 The Twisted Cork in Lexington, KY w/ Matt Chadourne and Kyle Fields. 8:30pm, Donations (please) FB event SATURDAY 12/13 The Knox Comedy Roast of Ebenezer Scrooge at the Pilot Light … Continue reading
“I Picked My Shoes Up from Fulford’s House” (Orlando Indie Comedy Fest)
Three wonderfully turbulent days, four and a half sets, gallons of PBR, and one impassioned Oasis singalong with Trae Crowder later, the Orlando Indie Comedy Fest is a wrap. I’m still waiting on more professionally shot photos from the fest to show up online; the only one I’ve seen so far is a camera phone … Continue reading
COLUMBUS – One Night Only! (Friday 9/12)
As many of you know, I loves me some Columbus, Ohio. Why, I can’t even go 3 months without bothering all the nice people up there with my presence and relieving them with my jokes. If you’re around there, and itching to see me tell some of those jokes, you’ve got a chance later this … Continue reading
“I Left my Shoes at Fulford’s House” (Ragnarok 3.0 is a Wrap!)
2271 miles, 7 states, and 12 shows later, Ragnarok 3.0 is a wrap. Gratitude cannot be adequately expressed to all the comics and friends who offered stage time, beds/couches, or even just laughter and kind words after shows. It’s never an easy road, but you all make this worth it. Extra respect for my great … Continue reading
