I went to Zimbabwe. I know how white people feel in America now; relaxed! Cause when I heard the police car I knew they weren't coming after me!

JTF,
I wouldn't necessarily call what I do stand-up, but I guess there's a little bit of that in there. More along the lines of performance art and storytelling with a dash of humor.
Believe me, I am like no one else and no one else is like me so I couldn't possibly be stealing anybody's bread from them, no matter how they slice it.

Inkblot,
This is interesting - I was kinda hoping to see if anyone would come on here and explain what it was like to do coke before a gig.
I only did it once and I was the funniest motherfucker on the planet (no really, other people confirmed it) and I was curious as to it's confidence boosting effects on the stage. It's probably not the best idea to try it though - I mean what if you killed?
'Hi, my names Garfy and I became a junkie because I liked to make people laugh.'

POST SCRIPT
I just did a gig on Thursday (stone cold sober I might add) and it all went swimingly. So far so good, however, when it came to the headline act he fell on to the stage pissed as a lord.
Now, it was clear that this guy was funny but out of about 45 minutes worth of stage time he had maybe 5 minutes of quality stuff. He felt that the fact that he was a drunk Canadian in an English club was sufficient to fill the quality gap. About 40% of the room agreed with him.
It would seem that being the headliner cuts you some major slack. Apparently, the fact that you are a drunk in a foreign land is enough for some people to get off. Time to emigrate I think.
Comedy is a very illogical thing.
