What are you lookin at?

I am on to the next chapter which is working on my second full dvd release which I hope to record in january on my tour

I look back on this week and although I am not happy on how it turned out ..I am grateful that some things stay the same

I met some really cool people who might not be household names but in their own way they deserve to be acknowledged.

One night at a shitty bar after a show, some chick was tooling off about the results. How she thought that the comic at the bar deserved to place higher then someone else. Being the younger comic he just said what can you do. I can appreciate that he did not want to get into it with her but I had to say something

"You know what... that comic is a good guy and he has been trying everynight like the rest of us...this comic here has already placed one night so let the other guy have his little moment in the sun"

The thing is I am not telling you that so you go ahh darren cares ...i am telling you that cause I really meant it. For once I was truly happy for another comic's success..a comics whose success that night may have been the reason I didn't go on.

I knew the Seattle comedy competition would not change my career like many of the younger comics thought it might...i just wanted to scream for awhile to different people and I did.

Sometimes I don't know why I do comedy and other times I know why ..and this week for the first time I realized that I can run from it but it is what it is.

I will never stop being a comic

Bowie: Changes

I still don't know what I was waiting for
And my time was running wild
A million dead-end streets
Every time I thought I'd got it made
It seemed the taste was not so sweet
So I turned myself to face me
But I've never caught a glimpse
Of how the others must see the faker
I'm much too fast to take that test

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-Changes
Don't want to be a richer man
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-Changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I can't trace time

I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence and
So the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're going through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-Changes
Don't tell t hem to grow up and out of it
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-Changes
Where's your shame
You've left us up to our necks in it
Time may change me
But you can't trace time

Strange fascination, fascinating me
Changes are taking the pace I'm going through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-Changes
Oh, look out you rock 'n rollers
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-Changes
Pretty soon you're gonna get a little older
Time may change me
But I can't trace time
I said that time may change me
But I can't trace time
