Confederate Memorial Day? WTF??!!
My buddy, Odinaka (OD), is a great comedian and videographer. He’s also a state employee and in Georgia they get off for ‘Confederate Memorial Day’. Did I mention that OD is black and from Nigeria? Here he makes a video asking local Atlantans if they knew what this was all about. Very funny stuff!!

My homeboy Cris Gray does improv w/ Whole World Theatre and some other groups here in Atlanta and he also tears up the scene as a comedian too.

He runs a GREAT monthly comedy spot on the first Tuesday of every month at the Highland Inn Ballroom in Virginia Highlands and he’s graciously allowed me host the May show tomorrow (May 5, 2009).  Guaranteed funny, if you’re in the A support your local funny brothers, haha!  & if you can’t check us out tomorrow, mark your calendar for next month.

Oh and Preciate the shout-out Cris, haha.


crisgray: Attack of The Funny!! This Saturday at 9pm!! It’s going to be sick!! Ay, some of my hilarious friends will be performing so if you wanna laugh in Atlanta tmmrw be there! Of course I’ll be performing at the Relapse Theatre tomorrow night (10 p.m.) so I’m kinda sabotaging myself. Dilemma Well, you could just come see me tonight at the Make Me Laugh show at Relapse and then we could call it even.   Dilemma solved

“We on a world tour…”

Walked into the Warren to perform and had one of the best sets I’ve had in a while thanks to some help from a not-so-silent audience member that gave me  a hilarious riff for about a minute or so.  Even though I was only on stage for 6 min I think I took advantage of just about every moment.

Tonight was my 96th peformance and I’ve grown sooo much since my humble beginnings (I’m still in those beginnnings).  I can’t wait to see where I’ll be by 300.  Anyway, 3 comics after my performance Ron White comes out from behind the curtain to perform and you could feel the energy in the room rise.  Now a little background, this was @ The Warren in Virginia Highlands, which is one of the best local showcase rooms in Atlanta… but not a place where big names come through.  So Ron White bein a surprise act tonight was kind of a big deal since someone on his level has never been through.   Needless to say it was a great show and now I can say I opened for Ron White (albeit accidentally, but that’s only for you ODumblrs to know).  Yes you read right, I Odinaka Ezeokoli, single-handedly integrated the Blue Collar Comedy Tour. Had to put a lil Green White and Green in there, haha.   I”m tired excuse the typos.  Good night.

Performin in Milledgeville tonight (ie Friday, April 3) for all my GCSU and Milly family. Blackbird Coffee, 9 p.m.  Peace & God bless
