Book Description
Vegas casinos, Bahamian beaches, seedy bars, tattooed, pierced, and dangerous women, unrequited love, unrequited death, cutthroat competition, stolen jokes -- Barry Friedman has seen it all and lived to tell the tale. Road Comic is Barry's no-holds-barred account of life on the comedy circuit. This book is about the comedians whose pictures are on placards outside the Holiday Inn registration desk, and whose acts are more memorable than their names. And first and foremost, it's the story of Barry Friedman, who began doing comedy in the Elks Lodges and topless bars of Oklahoma and worked his way up to being one of the top comics on the circuit. This is the unvarnished, unadulterated story of not just one top comic, but all the rising comics who don't have their own sitcom. But hey -- if Barry had his own sitcom, he wouldn't have written this book. Book jacket.

Happiness Isn't Funny

Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
Follow comedian Gabriel Rutledge on an occasionally-uncomfortable, always-funny look at the life of a modern road comic as he continues his climb toward the middle of the pack. Equal parts incisive and intimate, Rutledge relates-in hilarious detail-the challenges and struggles of raising a family and pursuing a comedy career, all while battling the horrors of the comedy condo, the slow death of performing to a captive nursing home audience, and the nightmare of air travel with a fellow comedian who just can't pick up on social cues. With his customary wit and searing honesty, Rutledge-2004 winner of the Seattle International Comedy Competition-pulls back the curtain on his life, his family, his art, and probably more about his bathroom habits than he should. Sometimes laughter hurts, but then again, happiness isn't funny.
