About Me
Name: Dave Robison
Location: Mobile, Alabama, United States
From Mobile, Alabama comes Dave Robison, a confessed Internet-aholic, middle-aged-married-man, who's generally a nice guy--he just has one or two issues.
Stand-Up Comedy by Dave Robison is available for corporate events, college campuses, and nightclubs.
If you haven't seen New Zealand's Cory The Dancing Baby doing his signature move, "the stanky leg" to Beyonce's, "Single Ladies"; then you just haven't had a good laugh in a while. It's a good video diversion to the day.
If you don't follow the industry of Comedy very closely then you probably don't know the feud between Comedians Joe Rogan (Fear Factor, The Man Show) and Carlos Mencia (Comedy Central's Mind of Mencia.
It has been alleged that Carlos Mencia is known for stealing material from lesser known comics and using their material in his act.
Joe Rogan, who obviously proves that "fear is not a factor" decides to confront Mencia at a comedy club. The following video qualifies as "viral" in the comedy community; everyone is watching it.
DEFINITELY NOT SUITABLE FOR WORK OR CHILDREN
UPDATE:
It looks like Carlos Mencia has had the video pulled from YouTube. It says because of copyright violation, but the video was taken by Joe Rogan, not Mencia. The video is still available at MySpace. You can do a search for it by typing in Joe Rogan Vs Carlos Mencia. I won't give the link here, to insure that the video stays available for as long as possible. But I would guess another version will surface at YouTube again or will be available at Joe Rogan's website.
UPDATE #2:
Joe has been banned from the Comedy Store for this incident as of today.
Joe posts the full story of the verbal fight between him and Carlos Mencia at his website JoeRogan.Net
In advance of my new blog design being finalized, I have reserved the name Ventures Entertainment Dot Com as a spot for future comedy bookings.
I used to operate a video production company many years ago called Video Ventures.
I believe the dot com version of that name now points to a porno site; or did at one time; I haven't checked recently.
The site for this new named "venture" won't be available for some time, but a mini blog will be included in the new On The Road With Dave design and will eventually point interested clients in that direction.
