We're on the right road...

My Blog: The Road to Getting’ Higher,  Well, it won’t be long now and I will be playing to hopefully a theater full of warm and giving people. Who will have their laughing caps on and ears ready to hear some real honest comedy. I think it’s time for some of that honesty that is, this show will be the most honest I have ever been in my entire time on stage. I have been on stage for over twenty years and now producers say the world is ready for me for my kind of voice. So on June 11th will be the beginning of a three weekend run for me performing in my first one-man show. (So it’s not at all a stand up show.)

Wow, our production staff was thrilled and launched right into action before I was even ready to do the show. Our staff moves faster then my decision making, but of course I agreed and now I will be performing for all of you June 11th thru the 28th.

I am excited but a little anxious about how much I will expose of myself in this show. For years I was able to hide myself within my routine now it’s time to reveal myself in my routine. And that’s a little nerve racking but I’m willing to put myself out there in front of all of you. Making you laugh is what I do in America.
I’m not going to be on this planet forever obviously,  so I guess it’s time to tell the whole story in the most hilarious ways I can.
I won’t be alone in this writing process Danita Jones, writer for Frasier and Sabrina The Teenage Witch, with writer, actor, director Larry B. Scott, including his thirty years of making people laugh in to the act. This combined effort should keep me on track for a comedy ride that will be new to me. These writers are flushing all they can get out of me I feel like I’m in therapy with these two.
I’ve worked almost every major venue a comedian could ask for concerts halls and auditoriums included. But this intimate ride with a small audience should top any experience I’ve had working for others.

It will be just us people me and you, it’s going to be a big show in a small theater. ( I’m doing six shows a week though). Let’s be assured that God continues to bless the mic and ME.

My manager, is one of the co-producer’s on this project and she is doing all she can to keep the engine running smoothly. I thank God for her everyday, she’s arranging the interviews and talk show venues with our publicists Andrew and Bobbi. So when you here there names know they have something to tell you don’t hang up.
My manager got me this E-cigarette it’s an electronic cigarette no shit it’s bad! I love it, I’ve had it for four days and I’ve only smoked 10 or so regular cigarettes since. Coming from a pack a day comic.
And I can smoke this e-cig. Anywhere! If I wanted to I could smoke it in church, I don’t of course I just could. The smoke is vapor like steam not real smoke it’s a trip. I’ll tell you more about it once they give me a reason to I just got it the other day they say if I’m still smoking my regular cigarettes “American Spirits” (yellow) after three weeks they’ll send me fifty dollars. I say that’ s a fifty I will be collecting even though I can already tell the difference in my smoking. But If I have to smoke one cigarette to get that fifty dollars I’m getting the fifty. But I think this e-cigarette is working. I’m sure I won’t be smoking after four weeks. I’ll be using the thing as a prop. I thank my manager for it. I mean she would have me swimming and running miles everyday if she could. She wants me to live to see any success at all that I might have and for that I am grateful to her.

I am grateful for all of the wonderful people who have come on aboard to make this show a great success. I am truly overwhelmed by the support I am getting author Gary Stromberg of “The Harder They Fall” has given us his endorsement. Which means a lot to me this guy has been around the blocks of Hollywood many of times and I appreciate his experience, strength and hope. It helps me to know that I’m headed in the right direction to be useful to the world by people who are. I can’t thank you all enough you humble me and anyone who knows me that’s a helluva a thing to do. Thank you.
This whole project is humbling I have to hire and not by my own desire I have to let go of some to. Anyway it’s not what I like doing I like performing and caring about others and the place I live. I’m not a good politician I’m an okay business man I’m just a better performer. So along this journey I hope I don’t hurt anyone and you can believe if I do or have already and don’t know it, it surely wasn’t or isn’t intentional. Let me say I’m sorry now before this train really leaves the station and I may never have the opportunity to turn or look back.

Thanks for reading, commenting and sharing my blog with others. “Wishing you peace beyond all understanding” po’i. Spencer out.
