#NABM 10/18 8PM - OFFICIALLY SOLD OUT
Dear Miami Nighttime People,
So, here's the thing, when comics are tired of performing the same ol’ set, they wrap it up in a comedy album. The last one I did is titled ‘Adorably Offensive’. If you’ve heard the album or seen me live you understand why—it was my first hour and I was a freshman in fatherhood, living and raising my young family in NYC when I wrote and performed that hour. Since the time when I came to Miami to record that album with Dom and his crew at Have Nots Comedy, things have changed a lot for me. I recklessly had another child (I blame Brazil Week 2012 in NYC and their delicious drinks), I moved to Miami to give my partner the support I said she could have if she ever needed it (she did), and I started to perform in the regular rooms of Miami. Becoming a regular on a scene where you only visited when recording your album, was a real eye-opener. Florida’s comedy scene is an equal part mash-up of poets, singers, song-writers, painters, comics, and directors. I respect all of them—well, mostly. But like every city, you get up, perform your best, and let the set speak for itself. So a year has passed. The ducks that live in the lake in my backyard in Miami, FL had ducklings and even though only two survived, they are huge. Watching my kids standing next to them, feeding them, is weird and amazing. For a moment, they’re a small group of tangible, communicating, eating, hypothetical concepts and I get it. I want to give them the best, so every year I write, develop a new hour, record it, produce it, package and sell it. Because I want to give my kids everything, it’s really that simple. And this time, we’re filming it too. Fun things will happen to this footage and if you are in it, you can tell your friends that you were in that Comedy Special shot in Miami in 2014 streaming on your computer. Cool, huh? The hour that I’m filming on OCT 18th is called ‘Not a Beautiful Mind’ which is basically an hour of me trying to explain that I really do love my life, I just hate everything I have to do to make it work. I’m really just trying to do good and I’m failing at it. This is the Final Footage Filming for my Comedy album. This is it, so let’s make funny shit happen. You’ve got to come out and support. The venue is very cool and super intimate, and, heads up ladies and metro-sexual dudes (is that still a thing?), because the film crew is going to be interviewing fans for the Credit Scenes right after the show. Come ready for Instagram pics, photo-ops, and every social media pimp-out known to mankind. I just really want to wrap up this hour, have a good time, and start working out the next 5 minutes. It never ends, I’m a comic. Come to the show, ticket info http://bit.ly/WgpACF You're The Dopest. Thanks, Eric DaSilva |
