The Funny Bone’s open mike was epic tonight. There is a workshop beforehand where new comics try their material. A black dude in his 40’s or 50’s introduced himself as “No Money Productions presents Still Gettin’ Paid.” He then berated all the other comics as rookies and said, “Y’all are crybabies. I’m a pro. I practiced this at home.” (Which is not professional BTW…) He then after seven minutes announced he was off his meds and was removed by security. He yelled as he was drug out that this was his chance; his only hope. An unpaid open mike. On a Tuesday. At a mall. Unfortunately, this did not shock me in any way. This is comedy.

Oh, hell yeah that was hilarious then quickly descended into utter freaking chaos. I knew there was probably going to be trouble when I was sitting near the sign-up sheet and that guy came in and took about ten minutes to sign his whole ‘name’ or pitch or whatever the hell he was writing on the paper. If he was schooling me as a wannabe rookie comic, then I’m guessing he represented the Goofus part of the Highlights comic, not Gallant.
