Most of stand up comedy works the road.  Comedy clubs, cruise ships, military bases, colleges, and corporate gigs. These are the comics who go where the people are. JR Brow is one of those comedians, and one of my favorites.

Appearances on Comedy Central and The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson only solidify the obvious. JR Brow is a rock-solid comedian with the added flair of being able to play the guitar really, really well. If you’re looking for a poster child for the American working stand up comedian, this is it.

It is comedy unfettered by celebrity, and in all the good ways. Nobody in these crowds is giving you a pass because of who you are. You must earn every bit of it, and 30 years fishing those treacherous waters can’t help but teach you some things.

I would like to see what those things are, but first I pick up with JR Brow as we revisit some of our early adventures together. For more on JR Brow, visit JrBrow.com
