Genre:
Stand-Up / Mainstream
TV Shows
Have I ever been on TV? Yes. Have I ever appeared on a channel that did not also broadcast Planning and Zoning Committee meetings or school lunch menus? Ummm...no. Did Henny Youngman ever appear on East Longmeadow, MA Cable Access? Well I have. Without bragging I should also admit that I appeared on "A Night at the Joker", which was a show recorded at the Joker's Wild in New Haven, CT in 1991. I do not recall the name of the cable company who broadcast this program, but I can safely assume that all copies of the tape have been incinerated or are buried in a landfill in Southern New England.
Bio
According to crowds at clubs and fundraisers all over Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts, Howie Mason is pretty funny. His material has been called "cerebral"...probably by people who don’t know what "cerebral" means, but the compliment is appreciated nonetheless. During his 18 years of comedy, Howie has performed with Joe Rogan and Lisa Lampanelli and has opened for Dom Irrera and Jimmy "JJ" Walker.
Influences
Robert Klein, Hawkeye Pierce (I know he was a character on a TV show, but the writing and performing was brilliant), Brian Regan and almost every comedian who appeared on The Mike Douglas Show from 1978 to 1983.
