AM I FAMOUS YET???

I have wanted to do stand-up comedy for years but never had the confidence to do it until some things happened to me in my personal life, and I thought YOLO (I didn’t really think YOLO because I’m not an utter cunt, I thought what each letter of that abbreviation stands for), I went for it and its been brilliant ever since. sometimes people even laugh! 

                                                               

                                                                   

I have been going for around a year now, have gigged all over the place and met so many great comedians who I now call my friends; but on the odd occasion you meet people who are in it for the wrong reasons. They want a fast track to fame, they want the big bucks and they want it all now, you will know which ones these are because they are usually shit.

I think it's great to have the ambition and drive to want to get better at something, to want to be the best in your chosen art form and even to dream of becoming famous. But to set out with fame and being rich as your only goal is wrong and not at all what it should be about. You need to be passionate about what you’re doing.

                                              

I dream of being on big stages, I dream of making people laugh every night, I live for comedy and I have done for years, Before I was even doing stand-up, I would watch comedy every day, whether on DVD, television or live. I would be analysing what the comedians were doing and trying to think up my own funny, original material.

I'm so glad to be doing something I love, I have found something I would love to do forever and sometimes you come away from a gig thinking, “WOW I am really getting somewhere with this comedy lark..”

Then all of a sudden you're brought back to reality and are aware that you are just a notch on the bedpost to what is currently the most amateur gangfucked art that there is.

 I find it hard to even call myself a comedian when Russell Kane's dog has more followers than me on twitter. I am just a person who enjoys being on stage.

I like to make people laugh, and if one day someone stumbles upon me and I get to make some money out of it then so be it. 

                                                

But for now all I want to do is have some fun, drink lots, have sex with my beautiful girlfriend and hope sometime in the near future Russell Kane's dog steps out of line!

Mind you, that dog is cute as fuck!!
