Originally posted by Big Troubles I worked a few gigs with Yuk Yuk's. Just circuit work. Min. pay. Id get $300 a show. The show was 15 min spot, and they gave me free food and booze for the night before and that evening itself. I always passed on the second night, as Id want to fly back home not drunk.
It was anexperience. Got some good laughs. It just never felt respectable. I felt like I was repeating myself all the time. Which you really end up doing, as alot of them do.
Big Troubles you are a liar!
In the 90's Yuk Yuk's was not paying the 15 minute opener $300.00 per show! That is 100% bullshit. $300.00 for the week...yes. $300.00 for the weekend...maybe. But $300.00 per show that's false. Why do you have to lie to these people to pump yourself up. Never felt respectable?? What the fuck are you talking about? Repeating yourself all the time YES that's how you develop material and an act. Go watch any comic who is headlining across the country and they'll do the same act every night or close to it as they are trying to work it out and get it to be perfect.
$300.00 per show in the 90's after the comedy boom of the 80's was ending. No way!!
LOL First of all, Like I give a flying fuck what you think of me. When your busy sifting through your feces for corn and nuts to determine what you had for lunch the day before, the rest of the world had already moved on. In other words, you are just not that important, and you really shouldn't claim to be.
But for the record, since you are sooo interested in what I was saying to someone else, I will reiterate my original posting. I was working Yuk Yuk's doing bit shows that paid $300 flat rate. They would use me the first night, which food and booze was free, and use me the second night, which as well the booze and food bar was free. But I opted not to drink and slob out, as I needed to fly back home. Its actualy a short 3 hr drive north, but I have a buddy that flies air ambulance and cargo so all worked for me as long as the timing was good. Not that, THAT was any of your business either.
So again; Add up the nights. Not one. 2 nights. Bit shows are shows where they would use you sporaticaly for the two nights you were there. Doors open at 11am and close at 3am. The comedy bits close at 12am though, and its just drinking from 12am to 3am. When a person shows up, in this case T.O, Mike would hand me my schedule for those 2 nights. 15 min spots, and usualy 2 spots per eve. So again; Lets add it up. 2 days. 2 spots each day. Hmmm? Doesn't sound like you knew what you were talking about actualy. And like I said it wasn't worth it finacially either. I needed to pay for lunch (daytime) and motel.(which was not provided)
So now that Ive finished defending myself to you, whoever the fuck you are, you can go back to being wrong on other peoples personal lives.
"FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKIN' BITCH! WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE ANYWAYS? TALK TO ME LIKE THAT? FUCK YOU. DRAG QUEEN LOOKIN' WHORE- YOU AINT SHIT. YOUR THE FRECKLE TO THE LEFT OF MY BROWN EYE. NOW GO MAKE YOURSELF USEFUL...OH, PUT DAD ON THE PHONE"

Hina is digusted with you lies!!
I dont have to build myself at all, thank you. I have more friends than pubic hairs...And thats a lot. You should know that, you're still plucking them from your 3 teeth.
And I realise that most people know that comics repeat themselves, but this conversation didn't involve you. I assumed that the person I was talking to didn't know that. Thats not gonna be a problem for you in the future is it? Cause if it is, I will have to cater my posts accordingly, to make sure that everything I talk about will be geared to, and around what ever it is that peaks your interest. You fucking retard! LMAO I didn't respect what i was doing for various reasons. One I mentioned. The others are still none of your business, nor will it be. And building myself up is just not something I have to do. It all comes natural to me. But thanks for asking. All this coming from a guy?, who claims to be a General? Who's building whom? Go get a friend.

Your original post said $300 per show. Go back and read it liar. Plus, you must have been really funny to go from stand-up to mowing lawns.
