(34,125 posts)he is so funny.
Saw him in a small venue a couple of years ago for my husband's birthday. I was stunned. I knew he was talented but I had no idea just how much talent he has and how energetic he is through out a very long show.
He has all my respect. His musicianship far surpasses his comedy and his comedy is superior.
