Throwing Toasters

A mere 48 hours after rockin’ Massachusetts, TT brought the funny to the hip CineSpace in Hollywood, CA! The celebrities were out in force including Alison Mork, you know Chairy from Pee Wee’s Playhouse?! Yeah, pretty cool. Anyway, here’s what was played….

A jam packed Throwing Toasters fan filled crowd was present when the funny was brought to the Harvest Cafe in Hudson, MA! This was a fun (albeit short) show but a grand time was had by all! Don’t be surprised to see TT back there again next time we’re in the area! And stay tuned because video of the event is coming soon! In the meantime, here’s what was played…

Wow! Al Fest was here and then suddenly whisked away from us like the football from Charlie Brown, but MAN what a ride! I saw so many friends who I had not seen in one, two, three or even more years! ALso got to hang with comedy music buddies, Hot Waffles, Raymond & Scum, Devo Spice, Tony Goldmark and Joe Lavelle!

Before we get to the set list, I just want to say thank you to Vikki who put the whole thing together! She did an amazing job and I don’t see how anyone could have any bad thing to say about the entire event. It was professionally run and a blast!

Okay, here’s what I played….

I had a blast and even had a little video I took and posted via Twitter got retweeted by Al himself. Kinda cool! http://www.twitvid.com/48BB5

Can’t wait for the next one and if anyone’s got good shots of Bermuda and I or Vanessa and I on stage together, I’d love to see them!

Fun show! For the Classified Employees at East Los Angeles College! Here’s what was played…

Great to get back to the funny music and the crowd was certainly into it for an 11AM show! Special thanks to Di Stanky who opened. I’ll be doing another show with Di in the future! Stay tuned.

A small but mighty crowd rocked the Strings Of Comedy Show at The M Bar. It was great to see some good comedy music pals whom I haven’t seen in a while. Especially great to catch up with Eric Schwartz. The man is amazing on stage and can captivate a room in seconds. Go see him. He’s awesome!

Here’s what was played by yours truly…

The next Strings of Comedy show will be May 8th. I will not be taking part as I’ll be out of town, but if you’re in the area, go check it out! A good time will be had by all, including you!

Wow! What a great show! Beautiful theater, excellent sound system and an enthusiastic crowd. Made for a great evening of fun. And talk about fun, the Eastern Student Entertainment board went all out with their publicity! Check out the larger than life poster they made for the show…

Thanks to Robin, Kelsha (hope I’m spelling that right), Liz, Lindsey and the rest of the ESE staff for the awesome event.

Another great crowd greeted me a Chico State! A good time was had by all and ever caught up with an old college buddy who lived in the area and came to the show. Also got to meet Chris who said he’d heard PATRICK THE SPOILER on Dr. Demento. It was great to meet him! Now if only something could be done with that pesky “Bad Joke Alarm” that kept going off! Here’s the set list.

Now it’s off to Eastern Oregon University, by way of Boise, ID. Apparently that’s the closest airport to EOU. I’ve been thinking it may be time to retire ONLINE LOVE. It still gets laughs but it’s outdated. I mean who meets women online and has no idea what they look like? Does that happen anymore? So tonight may be the last time I play it. Perhaps it can go in for retooling? Don’t know.

A fantastic show at Embry-Riddle last night. The crowd was fantastic (even ‘Spring Break Guy’) and the campus activities board was super accommodating! These are the kind of college shows I like! Here’s what was played…

Thanks again to the students and staff of Embry-Riddle! I’m just hoping I didn’t get caught by any of these pesky roadside Radar Cameras they have here in Arizona!

Wow. A fantastic show and an AMAZING crowd! The audience was hot and I think enjoy the almost hour and twenty minute long set! Here’s what was played…

Yes, you read that right, O.Y.M.A. was played at a college show. I have to add at the request of the Campus Activities Board! Again it was so much fun playing this show, having family and friend sin the crowd along with the great O.I.T. staff and students! I’ll add some pictures when I get back to Burbank, but they outdid themselves on the publicity! Posters, lighted board outside and the coolest was they presented me with a toaster at the end of the show! SO much fun! THANKS O.I.T.!

This was a fun show. I was booked to host this show which was a talent show featuring acts made up of W.U. students. The acts were all fantastic, from the band, to the solo singers, to the jugglers, to the guy who walked on a basketball and sag, to the winner: an amazing breakdancing act!

Here’s a list of what I played…
