Super line up tomorrow at Hawaiian Brian's for Comedy Dojo X: the Return of David Lee. My first Comedy Dojo and first comedy show as a featured musical act in years. The last comedy show I did was a couple years back when I opened for one of my heroes Michael Winslow at Pipeline Cafe. When I caught Michael Winslow live, his show literally blew my mind away. I am ready to introduce new material at tomorrow's show. I am ready to hit that circuit again.
