Coronavirus killed the comedy star
The coronavirus pandemic has taken its toll on one important aspect of my life: comedy. Any comedy shows I had booked are pretty much canceled or postponed to further notice.
I figured that I could at least tell you about all the shows that I haven’t been able to perform since that’s the only thing I can add to this section of the blog for the time being.

I was supposed to be at a show in Waynesville, Ohio at the Stone House Tavern on March 26. I really like Waynesville, and it’s not too far of a drive. Thanks, coronavirus.
On April 3, I was supposed to be in Columbus at Kafe Kerouac. I really hope to get on this show again so that my parents, who live in Columbus can finally see me do comedy again. Thanks, coronavirus.
The first weekend in April, I was supposed to travel to Ravenswood, West Virginia. This was going to be a special show as I was getting paid and was getting a hotel room. The drive would’ve been hella long, but who cares. Free hotel room. Thanks, coronavirus.
On April 9, I was supposed to be back at The Barrel in Springboro. I performed here a year or so ago, and it had one of the best crowds I have ever performed in front of. Thanks, coronavirus.
I also had an Athens show scheduled for sometime in March or April, but it being a college town and the schools were all closed, the show was also canceled. Thanks, coronavirus.
There might have been other shows I missed, but to try to remember them all is too painful. As for now, one show remains on my calendar. That is Saturday, June 6 in Athens at Donkey Coffee. Only time will tell whether this show will go on.
For now, I assume, I should be writing more. However, it can be daunting when you have no clue when or if you might perform again. Thanks, coronavirus.
