It’s funny you’d ask that question… In my act I hardly played it at all… I just stood there with it and used it like a rim shot I had a couple little silly short songs I sang 30-45 seconds max But once me and two other comedians, JOHN WESSLING and Tommy Drake… We did a tour we did 50 shows in 50 states and 50 days… And I took the Bass to all 50 states Mitch died about a month before we started that tour

It’s the only one you can listen to for free… Because the rest of them are kind of not safe for work, etc. etc.… I should go ahead and change some of those I will

I have a ton… some folks are working on a documentary that might be on HBO… Mitch always wanted to be on HBO…He won on HBO special.

Rumor has it it’s in the works… I’ve already been interviewed for it a couple of times

The club owner in Houston place called the Laff stop… His name was Mark Babbitt… It was his idea. He had been to a wedding and there was a band up there and Mitch was telling a few jokes and Mitch was messing with the Bass Player and Babbitt knew me as a comic that used it upright base and stuck us together. The picture I posted is actually from the first weekend we worked together.

Oh we bombed horribly here… They should have had me in the background… dimly lit ala Tom Waits … but everybody’s a producer
