Your tour is a bit different in that regard and I shouldn’t have lumped it in with the others…(however, since you all share ‘being different’ then you have something in common, no? j/k. If I could do footnotes, I’d put one here about The Sneetches, by Dr. Suess).

But, seriously, I see your point and was just pointing out the ubiquity of ‘xyz comedy tours’ that have populated the Earth in the past 10 years. If it’s a way to get comedians out there and seen (and paid), then fine.

I suppose I don’t view it as a gimmick, but some of these tours I think they are cynical toward/about their targeted audience.

But, if it were up to me, every comic would get their own sweet, cash-filled tour, starting with you, then me.

I hope I get to see the “Kickin’ Ass” tour.
And thanks for noticing our tour. Let me point out though, that while the other tours do indeed focus on what the comics have in common ours was put together based on our differences.

It is a that fact the only thing that we do have in common is that we all want to use a cheap gimmick to forward our careers and make a quick buck. :)

Peace,
