* The Chemically Enhanced Comedy of Brian Lee *
And We're Off and Running!
Where did January go? My God, that was a fast month. Quick recap:
Did a "two-night stand" at Fatboys Country Store in Leonardtown, MD.
Sold out the first night, and had a great turnout for the second night
(even though I was competing against the NFL Playoffs). I can't thank
Randy and the staff of the Country Store enough for your hospitality and
support. If you are ever in southern Maryland, you need to stop by and
have a drink there!
On a side note, I gave my photographer the weekend off, so I don't have
any pictures from the show. I did, however, have my videotographers
working (thank you Mindy and Jim). Before you ask, the videos will not
be posted on the site....I don't want to risk that radio station in Pittsburgh
stealing anymore of my material.
If you were at one of the shows and did take pics..please send them to
me.
What's on tap? First, I will be one of the judges for the finals of the
"Cadillac Jack's Amateur Comedy Competition" on 4 February at 8 p.m.
Along with two other judges, I will be judging the contestants "Idol
Style". It should be a fun night.
After that, I will be hosting and MC'ing a show for some of Southern
Maryland's up and coming comics....or what I like to call, an "easy
payday". This will happen on February 27th, at Cadillac Jacks' Night
Club in Lexington Park, MD. Come out and support the new blood as
well as see me try out some of my new routine as I prepare for my
"Getting' the Hell out of Southern Maryland" 2010 Tour.
Finally, I have to send out congratulations to some very good friends.
First, congratulations to Jon and Nichole C. on the birth of their first
child, Ellanore Anne.
And second, congratulations to Donna K. on her retirement from the U.S.
Navy. You made it! Looking forward to catching up with some old
friends at the ceremony.
Oh, and fuck Jay Leno!
Till next time......drinks are on me,
BL
next show: to be announced...soon!

"Brian-Buster Recommendations":
Must See: "Zombieland". If you liked "Shaun of the Dead", you will like
this as well. Woody Harrelson's still got it.
Must Avoid: "The Ugly Truth". Yep, I was roped into seeing another
chick flick. Avoid this like the plague. For the love of God, Gerard Butler,
PLEASE stick to action movies.
