Based in Atlanta, Dave has been developing his sarcastic and irreverent brand of comedy in clubs and truckstops throughout the southeast and east coast of America since before he could walk. He has shared stages with such comedy vets as Robert Klein, Patton Oswalt, Brian Posehn, Doug Benson and Greg Giraldo, among others. Dave is a co-founding member of The Beards of Comedy Tour, which may or may not be appearing in a dive bar near you. Dave sometimes makes funnies on the radio as a regular guest, pun intended, on The Regular Guys Show in Atlanta and Dallas. Dave asks that you watch his clips, come to his shows and tell your friends about him, so that one day bill collectors might leave him alone. Dave enjoys pretending someone else wrote this.

About me: I was born in America, therefore I am one of God's chosen people. I live in the south, and yet I don't hate Blacks, Latinos or the Gays, although I don't care much for the Amish. I am a comedian, but if you see me at the bank or the flea market or the Golden Corral please don't ask me to "say something funny", unless you're willing to give me 10 minutes, $7 and a microphone. What else? Well, I have 3 cats, some furniture and a very nice collection of breakfast cereals. I love to sneeze. I don't eat animals, but I do ridicule them. I kinda believe in Sasquatch. I don't believe the south will rise again, however I don't really know what that means. Cheettos are overrated. Wrong is bad. Art is good. Who farted? Radio Daze - Dave Stone from Beards of Comedy
Who I'd like to meet: The Boogie Man, and thank him for keeping my senses sharp when I was a child, thus making me the man I am today.
Thanks for the kind words, sir. When I look back at the breadth of my career, last night will undoubtedly stand as the apex. P.S If you happen to bump into Jack Kevorkian, please give him my number.

I hope the Punchline was great tonight, and I'm super upset that I had to miss it. Soon I will make it. Even if I have to stalk you. Which I'm sure won't have to happen. But if it does, don't be alarmed by the girl hiding in the tree, it's just me.
I'm only gonna tell you this one time..."You be careful when you go to MIDTOWN. " Are you still living out where Jesus lost his sandals or have you finally embraced "us gays and moved to the ATL?"
