Thanks guys. I just got good news. DGRW (a very good agency) is bringing me in to meet with the whole office on April 14th. If that goes well, I'll be back on my feet. Whew, this makes me feel a little better. And yes, Riverman, Portlandia would be awesome. By the way, is your avatar a picture of you? I like to imagine that's what you look like.
Rooting for you as well, Eric. Good luck with DGRW. Edit: BTW, if you're planning on an upcoming USO tour for your cabaret, I'll buy you a kabob in Kabul
. You live in Kabul? I have done a USO tour with a celebrity basketball team about 7 years ago. Yes! You look like such a pleasant man and you're the most positive person here.
I could be your agent, bro. The best I could get you is the Ross Ragland Theater in Klamabama though.
It would be cool if you gave us more info about how this stuff works. For example, I seem to recall you talking about doing standup. I'll be blunt, I've never thought a post of yours was intentionally funny. Do you discuss that with your agent? Cuz she might think you're nuts. Or she just might be a Laker fan stuck in New York, if so FUCK HER. I think you'd make a great drug dealer or meth cook on something like Better Call Saul.
Just met with DGRW. They've decided to sign me! I'm very excited. They're a very good agency. bodyman- In another thread, I told everyone that the two things I've always been afraid of and impressed by others who do it is marathon running and standup comedy. So I signed up for the marathon and got picked. For the last 4 weeks, I've been training for the marathon. I said that if I pull this off, I'll go ahead and try stand up comedy! And yes, I'd be good as a drug dealer.
The talents required for long-distance running (boring self-discipline, ignoring your needs crying for attention) are the opposite of the talents required for instantaneous comedy. The better you get at one, the worse you'll be at the other.
