Tim Wilson

Comedy/Music Tim Wilson
Wed February 10th7:30 PM

Wilson's comic commentary covers subjects such as blind dates, cell phones and annoying relatives. Topics such as sex, politics and religion are not only addressed, they are dissected with a meticulous eye for detail and a somewhat-skewed worldview.
Wilson is best known for such ditties as "The Jeff Gordon Song," "Trailer Love" and "First Baptist Bar & Grill," which he refers to as "my Freebird." Since inking a deal with Capitol Records in 1998, he's released more than a half-dozen albums, including "The Real Twang Thang," "I Should've Married My Father-in-Law" and "Hillbilly Homeboy." His latest CD, "Church League Softball Fist Fight," was released in November.
Along with being a longtime regular guest on nationally syndicated radio programs such as "The Bob & Tom Show" and "John Boy & Billy," Wilson also has some impressive TV credits, including appearances on "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno," "Evening at the Improv" and "Grace Under Fire."

At 6'4" and 180 pounds Todd is a red-headed, walking, talking cartoon. Moving in and out of two or three characters within seconds will make anyone think they're watching multiple performers. Todd’s high energy, non-stop act has blended stand-up, improv, and music into one deliciously stimulating show. A Bob and Tom regular, he’s known for his hit "Orange Barrels." This is definitely a "must see" event!

Sat April 10th10:00 PM

Angel Salazar is not your typical comedian. His Cuban/Puerto Rican heritage and penchant for sporting mini-skirts notwithstanding, this manic, human laugh factory is rather difficult to describe. Salazar's performance is a mixture of street-smart ethnic wisecracks, risque humor, physical comedy, and audience involvement. Angel has not only launched a successful career as a comedian, but is also an established actor, who has appeared in such noteworthy films as "Scarface," "Punchline," "Carlito's Way," and "Where the Buffalo Roam." He was also featured in Cheech and Chong's comedy video "Born in East L.A."  He has opened for the Beach Boys, Billy Ocean, Whitney Houston, Van Halen and The Miami Sound Machine. This diminutive comic is achieving success on a grand scale. As Angel implores you in his act: "Check it out!"

Rated Naughty   Please leave political correctness, V-chips, censors & frustrated school marms at the door. This is an evening of unforgettable adult humor. Susan Smith's is a sweet southern belle gone bad. She delivers everything you expect from this red headed Amazon. Marge drop kicks the audience with unbridled sexual humor. The Schrews sing, do impressions & involve the audience with hilarious results. They've appeared on The Disney Channel (SAY WHAT?) and the Nashville Network. Bring a sailor and watch him blush.
