   Dave Hill's Blurbs
About me:
Who is Dave Hill? It’s a question I ask myself often, which is strange considering the kind of access I have. This much I can tell you though- I am the new Hollywood “It” girl, the next Leo, America’s fresh-faced boy next door, and your new best friend all rolled into one. I am a poet, a dancer, and- perhaps most of all- a thief. Soon I am to steal your heart. More to the point however, I am a writer, performer, musician, actor, comedy-type person, artist, and thinking man living in the Big City, New York to be exact. On the writing front, I have written for the New York Times, Salon, HBO, Blender, The Huffington Post, FHM UK, XXL, Guitar World, Guitar Player, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, VH1, Spike TV, The Learning Channel, Court TV, and a bunch of other people too. I also wrote "The Black Metal Dialogues", which is pretty much the biggest thing to happen to the Internet since that one picture of the guy with puke coming out of his nose. Additionally, I am the author of the award-winning coffee table book “Down On The Farm: Barnyard Animals Of Note.” It’s pretty incredible. On the show business front, you might recognize me as the star of the wildly popular “King of Miami” program on the MOJO network (which comes to you in the futuristic high-definition format), or perhaps you’ve seen me on Court TV’s comedy news show “Smoking Gun TV,” which was canceled. I’ve also shown up on the popular MTV, Comedy Central, VH1, Cinemax, Adult Swim, Sundance Channel, TLC, Current TV, and Spike TV networks a few times. Deal with it. Sometimes I miss being able to walk into the free clinic and stuff without being harassed by people who watch TV really late at night, but for the most part I gotta say this “fame thing” suits me well. Really, really well. When I’m not busy being on TV all the time, I perform in New York City clubs. I get up on stage and talk about stuff, read something I wrote, dance around a little bit, show a short film I made, or just sort of touch hearts in general. I am also the host of a live chat/variety/donkey show called the Dave Hill Explosion, which is pretty much 1 in its time slot as far as I’m concerned. And one time, during a routine flight layover at the Newark airport, I staged an impromptu one-man interpretation of the award-winning musical Cats entirely within the confines of my trousers. As long as we’re on the topic, I should probably also mention that I have appeared at the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen and was named by Variety Magazine as one of their “10 Comics to Watch” in 2007. I’m not messing around with this sh*t. Aside from all of that stuff, I have also rocked America (and even parts of Canada) as a member of such critically-acclaimed-but-not-so-popular-as-to-be-considered-a-sellout bands as Uptown Sinclair, Cobra Verde, and Sons of Elvis. Lately, I have been rocking people into submission as the singer and guitar player for Valley Lodge and also the guitar player for Children of the Unicorn. There is talk of stickers. Anyway, so yeah, that’s pretty much the deal with me. I could go on but I really don’t like talking about myself that much. If you want to keep reading though, here is some stuff that other people said about me that I have organized here in the convenient and popular quotation format: “Whether he’s interviewing a pet psychic or Jimmy Kimmel, Hill usually manages to derail the conversation to his own insecurities with hilariously uncomfortable results.” -Variety Magazine “Brilliant.” -New York Magazine “Hill’s loose jabs and affable, nice-guy demeanor are what make his gently absurdist comedy so enjoyable.” -The Onion “I saw a great young guy last named Dave Hill who is really funny.” -Robin Williams, MoviesOnline.ca “Hill’s deadpan delivery as a talk show host who has severely overestimated his own coolness is priceless.” -AM New York “Dave Hill’s talk show is like being on an acid trip with a gentle bunny and Joe Franklin.” -Time Out New York “Like watching a self-important teenager strut around his bedroom, a fantasy world of his own fame complete with nunchucks and all that is ‘totally sweet’.” -The Aspen Times “Thanks to his quirky humor and knack for attention-getting, Dave Hill has shot to the stop in a surprisingly short period of time.” -Time Out New York Seriously though, I am mostly working on strength training and- to a lesser degree- levitation at this point in my life. I also have a website on the Internet, which is located at www.davehillonline.com. You can just click on that link and go there. I mean, hey, why not? You should also check out my hot sh*t rock band Valley Lodge, if you get a chance. I know, I know- it's a lot to handle all at once. Take your time if you need to. And remember- we're in this together. In other news, here are some videos for you to watch in your spare and/or valuable time. They work best if you let them load all the way before viewing. I'm not telling you how to run your life. I just want things to be perfect for you. You seem so nice.

And now for some shredding...
Who I'd like to meet:
Major A-holes, Oksana Baiul, and you.

Why has Bill Cunningham never taken your picture for the Styles section of the Times? Why have you never graced thesartorialist. blogspot. com? These are the questions that keep me awake....

Thanks for the add!
