darryl lenox's Comedian Bio
|
| Bio | I don’t know that anyone loves comedy more than I do...
The first time I ever stepped into a Comedy Club it was to perform at an open mic. The Comedy Underground in Seattle Washington. I saw a woman bomb horribly and told myself no one in this room can beat me playing basketball, so I don’t care if I bomb. I didn’t. I told a made up story about a scene in a movie called Betrayed. I got invited to audition for the Seattle Comedy Competition the very next night. That was in October of 1989. My ’Amour Fou’ with stand up has gotten me ran out of Seattle, LA, and the whole country of Canada. Kicked off of a USO Tour, Fired, Booed, told by a Cruise Director that I was Horrible, Not funny in anyway or shape. If comedy was a woman and rejected me that much, only Hell and MySpace would have room for the stalker I’d become.
My soul wants to have an impact on humanity. My mind and body have chosen stand up as its vehicle.
I’m sure all the trouble I have gotten myself in is because I have such an irrational love affair with the game. If choosing between rent or an un-guaranteed chance at being booked in better clubs, well let’s say I have been homeless a couple of times. I study this thing so much; I have learned from some of the best comics working. I have always said IF IT COSTS YOU MONEY TO WORK WITH SOME BODY YOU CAN LEARN FROM, TAKE THE FINANCIAL HIT AND GET AN EDUCATION.
Every time I have been devastated by life, the industry or mostly my own bad decisions- the mike has been there for me. More than any woman I have ever loved. The mike understands my shortcomings and accepts them. More than any friend I have ever known. As much as I love my family they could never take me to Africa. Mike has. So when people begin to talk about who’s the best comic, who has what deal and for how much money- when discussions arise about who has sitcoms and movie deals, I am calm, because I know all of that stuff will work itself out. Don’t get me wrong I would love and fully intend to have all of those accomplishments. I understand though that the moment my focus shifts from the love of creating to HOW CAN I GET A DEAL AND A SHOW? I will become desperate, and we all know what desperation leads to- a shitty sitcom. | | Website | darryllenox.com | | Influences | | | Members | Darryl Lenox’s Profile | Create Your Badge
