I thought of a good friend of mine who is now a journalist in Michigan, and the TV viewing area covers Saginaw. So it prompted me to find the song 'Saginaw, Michigan' on Youtube. It was first performed by Lefty Frizzell, and was a number one hit. It was also covered by Johnny Cash, as well as George Jones. I liked the story in the song, likely why it was a big hit. The main character has the last laugh. I recall my dad singing just the first verse every so often when I was young, which was 'I was born in Saginaw Michigan', and all I could think of was Dad was born in Iowa.
I did perform at the comedy club tonight, the stage is bigger there now. I got to everything on my set list except one bit, which is good. The DC native showed up later on to perform. I also came full circle when I spoke with one comic, we started and ended with this song I mentioned earlier.
International Falls did ones about snowplow poem, street harasser, mom wants grandkids, IUD pain was karma?, dog rescue, and police dog poem. Brew did ones about a police escort, and his ex was drunk. Nurses aide did ones about dating her boss, finding a guy with goals, meet me at the bus stop, retirement plan, and talking to her dog. Another was about IUDs causing suicidal thoughts. The crow did ones about the 'You Oughta Know' song, 16 year old love songs, smoking crack at a strip club, and being beaten with his own belt. A newer comic did ones about working at a junk mail factory. Another newer comic did ones about Special Olympics, and not wanting 'dic-pics'. Blind side did ones about quitting a job and buying a gun. Others were about living the dream, and no loitering at McDonald's. Long straw did ones about Sudafed, bullets, and moonshine at Casey's. Others were about a massage at Mall of America, veggie burgers, and a Cubs urn. Poster artist did ones about a football playoff game, you get lonely in this world, is Kid Rock staring at the same moon?, cannibals and scavengers in Detroit, and bacon can make anything good. DC did ones about 3 days with family, gaps in ornaments, and his sister is a lawyer. Others were about being a comedian or teach English in Costa Rica, leaving Las Vegas plan, and commentary about a date doing the Lord's work. Bronze did ones about losing a tooth, and reading Paul's letter. Cookie color did this joke as well as duffel bag with meat, Internet dating, Netflix, dating a guy with one spoon, cigarettes weed and Taco Bell, and you're awesome from phone. A comic I had seen before, possibly the show runner at an open-mic I did at the comedy marathon last year, did ones about slut shame, Ru-Paul, and Samuel Jackson.
