2.22.06 David: Hey Vince, this is Dave and Petra we partied with you in Cincinnati! (Petra was the dancer.) We wanted to know when you would be in Columbus? We love your DVD! Vince: Hey Dave. I remember you and the Dancing Machine. Thanks for enjoying the DVD. I will be at the Funnybone in Columbus March 28th-April 1st. I will be touring with a group called The Sellout Comedy Tour!! It is one of funniest, most thought provoking shows around. Make sure you and Petra make it out that week. See you then! Vince 2.20.06 Michael: I just watched your part on BET's Comic View and it was great! Many laughs but at the same time I really enjoyed your take on the state of black culture as it is being shaped by the wrong influences. I will definitely watch any show that you will be appearing on or catch you when you come to my home city of Detroit. Keep up the good work and God will bless you. Vince: Hey Michael. Thanks for watching. I really appreciate you "getting" it. Its not easy sometime. But I will 'keep on keeping on' as my Dad used to say. Congrats to you with your book series. I will let you know when I am in your area. Take care, and may you be Blessed as well. Vince 2.20.06 Karen: I happened to catch your act on Comic View. Absolutely hilarious....and long overdue. It's nice to hear about issues that matter. Do you ever get to the Seattle area? It would be great to get the out-of-the-norm entertainment in this area. Vince: Karen. How are you? Thanks for watching me. I would love to get out way. I have not yet performed in Seattle. As soon as I do I will let you know so you can come out to see the out-of-the-norm LIVE!!. I will see you then. Vince 2.20.06 Renita: I saw you on BET Comic View last night. Your stand up was funny and I applaud you for having a positive standup show. I see you were in Montclair New Jersey in December. Montclair is twenty minutes from my house. NYC is also twenty minutes from me in the other direction. Please let me know when you will be in New Jersey or NYC again. Me and my friends cant wait to see you. Vince: Renita. I will let you know when I am in the area. You missed me! I was right there! Thanks for your support. I will email soon. Vince 2.13.06 Jill: When are you coming to Atlanta? My sides nearly split when I saw your spot on Comedy Central. This show is the only time I have seen you perform, but I am very pleased to learn about your upcoming sitcom. I hope the producers are having you write the majority of the scripts. Your material is fantastic. My friend Kenneffs is quite relatable to your one of your bits. KenneTH is a great fellow, whose name I verified with his mother. I asked him once if he has multiple personality disorder and if all of the personalities are named Kenneff, hence the plural. He was confused, but all things said, he has a huge heart and is very kind. I am sure you are consumed with the duties of TV, but if you come to Atlanta, I am sure you will be a tough ticket! All good things- j Vince: Hey Jill! I am glad you enjoyed watching me. I will be in Atlanta later this year. I will be performing with a tour called The Sellout Comedy Tour! The show is one of the funniest, most thought provoking shows out there. I will email you so can bring Kenneffs, and the rest of his personalities. Thanks again for the support. If you want to see an hour of me check out my new DVD called The Morris Code. Just go back to my site and go to the merchandise page and order. It will keep you laughing, I promise. See you soon. Vince 2.13.06 Alex: Hi, Vince, I was you at Comedy Comedy in Aurora on 2/11/06, it was the first time I've seen you and I can tell you you have a fan for life and I hope you do get a tv deal I would be the first to watch keep up the good work and hope to see you again, but this time in Chicago. Vince: Alex. Thanks for the love. I hope so too. I will let you know when I am in Chicago, a place where people actually read the paper and aren't afraid of a little truth. I will see you then. Vince 1.18.06 Kelly: My husband caught your show while visiting a friend in Denver this weekend. He has not shut up about it since. Needless to say, we'll be front-and-center when you come to Lexington, Kentucky. He sent me the ticket link just this morning. I can't wait to see you for myself! Vince: Kelly. I remember your husband. He told me he was coming. Tell him I said thanks. I will see you guys there. Front and center!! Vince 1.16.06 Beth: Vince, My sister saw your show at the Comedy Club in Columbus and you promised to come Walnut Ridge and speak. Your schedule is not going to allow that right now but I will keep up with your schedule and hopefully keep you to your promise. This is my first year at "The Ridge," I was at South High School for 25 year prior, but I love being a Scot, hopefully some of your old teachers will be around and can tell stories about their prized student. We need good role models for our students to offer hope and direction. If you come I’ll be sure to bring an "Open Latte" from Starbucks. Vince: Beth. I will be in Columbus a lot this year. We might be able to work something out. I will be back at the Funnybone in Columbus March 29th-April1st performing with touring show called The Sellout Comedy Tour! You have to come out, its one the hottest shows you will ever see. I will sent you an email to remind you. Good luck at Ridge. See you soon and we will have and "Latte." Vince 1.11.06 Tara: What up? Vince: Tara. Nothing. What up with you? Tell me please, I am dying to know. Vince 1.11.06 John: I was more than pleased to cast my vote for you. I have to admit... what I perceive as your personal warmth really shines through in your act ... besides ... you are extremely, EXTREMELY funny. Good luck against Ron White, a very funny fellow to be sure (I caught him myself in concert this past fall) but certainly doesn't need any more exposure! Vince: John. Thanks for the vote. I know I have my work cut out for me, but thanks again. See you when I come to Indiana. Vince 1.3.06 Ruth Ann: I just caught your show on Comedy Central -- thanks for starting my 2006 off right! Even though our President doesn't respect intelligence, I'm a big fan of it. Much luck with your career...hope you make it out to Seattle this year! Vince: Ruth! I am glad I am helping to start your year of right. Tanks for watching. As soon as I come out your way I will email you to let you know. Thanks again for being a fan! Vince 1.3.06 Tracy: Vince, we caught your great stuff at Jokers in Miami Township on New Year's Eve, and we had a ball! Thanks for a great show!! Vince: Tracy! You're are welcome. Happy New Year!!! I will see you next time. Vince 12.27.05 Bart: Thank you for making me proud of my color, a friend asked me to watch a DVD where you performed in (Big Black Comedy) that he brought. You know, I do not remember how many times that I watched your spot and only your spot, because I'm a Christian. Is that performance was just entertainment or your way to educated my Brothers and Sisters, if your answer corresponds to the second part of my question I give You an A+. Where can I buy your DVD's? Vince: Hey Bart. First of all I am sorry for talking so long to answer. I lost a lot of my emails. Thank you so much for your support. Tell your friend I said thanks as well. To answer your question: it's both, I want to be entertaining as well as opening the eyes to these Brothers and Sisters. So thanks again. You can get MY DVD THE MORRIS CODE right here on my site. Just go to the Merchandise page and order. Take care and be Blessed. Vince 12.12.05 Jimmy: Hi Vince! I've seen you on Comedy Central Presents: Vince Morris and Premium Blend and I've got to say you fantastic! I love your Open Latte Steve joke and your bit about your father where he sits in the dark and turns on the lamp to talk. You should have you own sitcom and have a character named Open Latte Steve and another character based on your father. You could be the next Seinfeld! I had a couple questions for you. When is your birthday because I wondered how old you are? This question may seem bazaar but has anyone ever told you you look like Raj from What's Happening!! because you really do look ALOT like him. You even act the same too! Don't tell me you're Raj, LOL. Well thats it for me. See ya! Vince: Jimmy. Thanks for watching. Yes, I have been told I look like "Rog" from "What's Happening. It's Rog, short for Roger. I am working right now on my own sitcom. Some of the characters you've mentioned are in there. I am keeping my fingers crossed. I am 77 years old. I know I don't look a day over 50! Thanks again. Vince 12.12.05 Nini: I just wanted to say thank you! I had almost given up on Black comics. I am tired of the formula: sex joke, roach joke, weed joke,...you get the picture. Not that sexy roaches smoking weed isn't funny. Seriously, best to you. I do have a question. Were you really raised by a single father in the projects? I grew up (in the projects) in Cleveland, OH. My family status was rare as well. Both of my parents were together. I currently live in Blacksburg, VA. Will you be in the area? Yes, it is the boonies, however, as a Black administrator at Virginia Tech, let me say that our students would ENJOY you. Peace Vince: Hey Nini. I am sorry it took me a while to get back to you. Yes, I was really raised by my father. Its sounds like we both could an exhibit at the Smithsonian. You with TWO BLACK parents, me with a BLACK father! What are the odds? I would love to come to Virginia Tech. If can put something together please let me know. I do a lot of colleges. I promise, no sexy roaches smoking weed jokes. Thanks again for the support. Vince 12.5.05 Mike: My wife and I caught the show in Montclair, NJ last night. You were fantastic! I just wanted to say, Thank You very much. Its your honesty and obvious integrity that made the show so hilarious. Keep fighting the ignorance, you have a very bright future ahead of you, looking forward to seeing you again soon. Vince: Hey Mike. I am glad you and your wife enjoyed the show. Thanks for the support. I will keep fighting don't worry. I will see you next time. Vince 11.30.05 Travis: My name is Travis and I'm from Indianapolis, IN. I just wanted to say that I saw you on Comedy Central today and thought that you were absolutely hilarious! Just wanted to know if there were any plans to come to Indianapolis any time soon, and I was wondering if you've ever been on the Bob and Tom Show? If not, they're really missing out, you deserve some national attention like that. Anyway, just thought I'd drop a line and ask those questions.... thanks! Vince: Travis. Thanks for watching. I come to Indy at least once a year. I play Crackers comedy club. I will let you know when I am playing there next. I have been on The Bob and Tom show. I am not on there that often. I will keep up posted. Thanks again. Vince 11.28.05 Matt: I watched you on Comedy Central this summer. You are amazing. I live in Birmingham, Alabama and in the last 40 years much has happened here in race relations and communication. Yet, sadly, yours is the best explanation of why white people can't say the overly dreaded "N-word" I've ever heard. You made me laugh so hard I shook. I also appreciate your intelligent style of comedy which as I remember was fairly clean. The world needs more comedians like you. P.S. When are you coming to Birmingham? Vince: Hey Matt! Thanks for watching me. I am glad you I can make you laugh and shake. I am trying to get to Birmingham sometime next year. As soon as I do I will let you know. Thanks again for the support. Vince 11.22.05 Manny & Brenda: Yo, wassup Vince! Had a great time Saturday at Rascals. We got so goddamn drunk. I hadn't hung out like that in years. Thanks to our cuz, Ivan. I thought you were really down to earth and funny as a mother fucker! That was a great show. Anyway, we would love to see you again and hang out the next time you are in town. Best of luck to you in your future endeavors. Vince: Manny and Brenda. I've got two words to you. Crown Royal. Wow. I had a so much fun that night. Ivan and the whole damn fam where off the hook! I am glad you came out for his birthday. It was really nice meeting you and I will let you know when I am in the area again. Take care and be safe. Vince 11.8.05 Nancy: I just saw you on BET Comic View and very much enjoyed your performance. Not only are you pleasing to the eye, your comedy offers a truthful view of issues we face and most times seem to ignore. Its one thing to be a comedian and have the skill to make a person laugh, its a true gift to be able to make a person laugh and pay heed to worldly issues at the same time. My hat is definitely off to you! Keep doing what you're doing and let me know when you will be in Atlanta. I would love to see you!! Vince: Nancy. Thanks for watching me. I appreciate it that much more when people really "get" what it is I am putting out there. Its sad that some people don't want to hear what I have to say. But I will keep coming from the heart. I am in Atlanta at least once a year performing. I will let you know the next time so you can bring EVERYONE you know! Hope to see you soon. Vince 11.8.05 Lola: Hello, my name is Lola & I just saw you on B.E.T. & you were awesome! When are you coming to Chicago?!?!? Good luck with your career & thank you for the educated comedy! Vince: Hello Lola! Thanks for watching me on B.E.T. I will be in Chicago a couple of times next year. I will be performing at Zanies which is located downtown. I don't have the exact date but when I do, I will let you know. Hope to see you then. Vince 11.8.05 Fontaine: I love your look-I'm a photographer in Vegas. If you're ever here I would love to do some photos if you're interested - of course you will get copies. Check out my work and let me know! Vince: Fontaine. I will be in Las Vegas in March. I will be performing with a comedy tour called "SELLOUT." We will be at Boulder Station on March 3rd. Maybe you can come out and take some PICS. Lets talk about it. Leave me some info to get in contact with you. Thanks again. Vince 10.31.05 Aloysia: Hello Vince. I loved your show in Peoria on October 29th. Thanks for giving me something to do on a Saturday night in P-town. I was one of 3 on Saturday night. I totally got it and appreciated your jokes. Best of luck with your career. Did I miss you at the Elks? Nice meeting you. Vince: Aloysia. It was nice meeting you as well. I am glad I gave you something different to do in P-town. I am sorry I didn't get a chance to make it to the Elks. I will let you know when I am in the area. I will be in and around Chicago a few times next year. Maybe I will see you then. Thanks for the support. Vince 10.28.05 Chris: I attended your October 27th show in Peoria and I want to thank you for the best stand-up comedy experience I have ever had. My friend and I had not even expected that we would be going to a comedy show that night, but the owner of Brewster's invited us to join as we were finishing up our dinner while the room was being readied for the show. Your insightful and intelligent brand of humor was much appreciated by myself and my friend. I work at the Peoria Public Library so I know exactly where you are coming from. Many of our patrons are much in need of a visit from Grammar Man. I am regularly asked by our patrons for a key to the bafroom. I plan on keeping abreast of your schedule so that I may enjoy your comedy again. Thank You, Chris (older guy in plaid shirt) Vince: Hey Chris! Aka Mr. Plaid. I remember you. I am glad you and your friend enjoyed the show. I will email you when I am in the area. Keep up the good work at the "Libary," where is it located, on the "Norf" side? Grammar Man is always ready to help! Thanks again, Vince 10.17.05 Patricia: Help! I was calling about purchasing tickets for one of your shows at the Baltimore Improv when I learned that it had closed! Waaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!! By any chance, do you perform at the D.C. Improv or Slapsticks in Baltimore (searching the Internet now, but not sure if it's still a comedy club)? I think that's they're next closest ones to us. I was really looking forward to seeing your act. We missed seeing you last year at the Baltimore Improv. :-( Vince: Patricia. Don't panic! I got you. I think the Improv in Baltimore is closed. Good news! I will be playing the Comedy Factory in Baltimore sometime in '06. I will let you know. Also keep checking back on my site for the schedule. Don't miss me again! Thanks. Vince 10.17.05 Scot: Just a short thank-you for your 7:30 show Saturday Oct. 15th at Joey's. It was my wife and I's first time at a live comedy show and you made it a memorable one. We wanted to thank you in person after the show however you were busy selling your DVD's. : ) Vince: Scott. I cant believe I was you and your wife's first! I am blushing right now but you cant tell. Thank you guys so much. I will let you the next time I am in Livonia or somewhere close. Vince. 10.14.05 Brandy: My boyfriend and I just saw you last night (October 12, 2005) at Joey's Comedy Club in Livonia Michigan. You were awesome - nice job!!!!!! We will definitely be looking for you on TV and hopefully see you back at Joey's!!!!!!! Vince: Brandy. Thank you so much. Tell your man I said hey. I will definitely let you know when I am back and on TV. Vince 10.3.05 Nick: hey just wanted to say you are really funny and I enjoy watching your stand up. you need to come to Monterey and do a show on campus at csumb or at a club were 18 year olds came come watch. That would be awesome bye bye Vince: Hey Nick. I will try to get your campus. Thanks for watching me. See you soon. Bye bye. Vince 9.29.05 Ricky & Kasia: My now wife of 1 year and I wish to know if you remember when we saw your show at Charlie Goodnight in North Carolina? She(from Poland) and I met during the snow storm that week. Anyway she saw you on Comedy Central and said that is the man we saw on our date and wonders how things are for you now. We would love to catch up and see a show someday but not until after our little one is born Jan. Vince: Hey Ricky and Kasia. I cant say that I remember you. I do remember that week I had at Charlie Goodnights. It was fun. Good luck on with the little one. And congrats on your marriage. If I am ever in Rhode Island, PLEASE COME AND SEE ME! Thanks. Vince 9.26.05 Jason: Hey Vince, me and my wife saw you at the punchline in Atlanta this Friday night (Sept. 23rd ). We didn't even know you were going to be there but I sure am glad you were, because you were hilarious! I think you may have stood up Sheryl Underwood, the headliner, but hey that’s just my opinion. I hope you do really well with your career, and cant wait for you to come back to Atlanta . I got your DVD there too, going to watch it tonight, I know it'll be great. Vince: Jason. Thank you so much for the compliment. I'm glad you came out . I will let you know when I am back in Atlanta. Tell your wife I said hello. Enjoy the DVD. Vince 9.21.05 Holly: How are you doin? i seriously doubt u remember me but my name is Holly. i went to see you at Rooster Feathers in San Jose, CA. I was with five other girls and we visited with you after the show. My aunt took a picture of me and you and my cousin and said she was going to put it on a shirt that says "i saw Vince Morris in San Jose, CA" I plan on seeing you with another group of girls in October in Peoria. Anyways, I want you to know you are a great performer. We couldn't stop laughing all night. Can't wait to see you in October! Vince: HOLLY! Of course I remember you! Thanks a lot. That was a fun show. Tell your aunt and everyone I said hello. I will see you in Peoria. Don't forget your SHIRT! LOL. Vince 8.26.05 Polly: I was delighted with your performance in Columbia "On Top of the Vu". I'm a Juvenile Officer and wish the kids I work with/for could hear your message. It's on an ongoing struggle trying to help them recognize their potential and guide them towards better self esteem and self respect. I wish I could fit them all for your "ER" shoes! Thanks again. I laughed so hard I'm a bit hoarse. Vince: Polly. You are so welcome. I have a lot of respect for you. All I do is "watch and report" about the ignorance that I see in this world. You "work" with it. Keep up the struggle and maybe between the two of us, some of these "knuckle heads" will listen. As soon as I get the "ER" shoes I WILL SEND THEM! Thanks again. Vince 8.15.05 Dragos: hey man....i'm from Romania...i caught you in the big black comedy show....i know it's old but u cracked me up...even if i'm white i'm feeling you because u say it like it is with no curtain...you should come here sometime...it's a cool country and you'd be appreciated...that's my opinion...we don't have that good'a comedy here...u could teach our dudes some stuff:)...so...holla' at me when you got some time! Vince: Dragos. I can see it now "The Big Black Comedy Show" LIVE IN ROMANIA! Thank you so much for the support. I would have never imagined that I would be getting laughs in Romania. I would love to come there to do stand up. Let me know if you got a hook up. Thanks. Vince 7.25.05 Michelle: I just saw your show on Comedy Central and it was hilarious!!!! The jokes about your father reminded me of my dad, only Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell were playing in the background. I was wondering if you'll ever be in Reno, NV or the San Francisco Bay Area. I would love to come out and "support a brotha". Vince: Michelle. I am glad I'm not the only one with a "music playing, pitch black loving, chain smoking father." The next time I am in your area I will let you know. Keep laughing. Thanks for the support. Vince 7.20.05 Walsh: I caught your ½ hour special on Comedy Central the other night and it was the funniest thing I have seen in quite a long time. I have to admit I hadn't heard of you before and when I saw your opening head shot I was bracing myself for yet another barrage of urban-ghettofabolus-babymomma-blingbling-yaheard-niggathis-niggathat thugisms from a young black pretty boy. In fact my finger was on the trigger to change the channel when I first started listening to your act. By the time you got to "open latte Steve" I was hooked. Your bits were funny, intelligent and well delivered. I have TiVo so by the time your special was done I was on the rewind button to watch it again. Vince, you have skills and I hope, no scratch that, I know you will make it big. Keep grinding out there and I wish you great success in all of your endeavors. Also, please let me know when you will be in the Chicago area because I definitely would like to support you by seeing your act. Just make sure you come with some new shit though; I don’t want to have to pay for what I have already seen for free Vince: Walsh. Thanks for hanging in there until "open latte" Steve. It's unfortunate that a lot of black comics rely only on "ghetto shit." Perpetuating stereotypes to the point where I am thinking... " what year is this?" Modern day minstrel shows. And what's even more disturbing, it doesn't seem like its going to stop. I think we need more people (black people) to speak out against all ignorance. Its apparent that some of these performers don't care either. As long as they're "getting paid." They don't realize that Hollywood doesn't care either. In fact, Hollywood loves it! As long as you act like a "NIGGA," they will ALWAYS pay you to be ONE! I will be in your area sometime next year. I will let you know. Don't worry, I will have new shit! Thanks again for the support. Vince 7.19.05 Majda: Actually tonight was the first time I saw your show on Comedy Central, and I loved it, loved it, loved it.... you are cool, so funny, very entertaining, and so Damn good looking and "Attirant et Charmant" ;). I just wanna know if you have any visits to Washington, DC area soon? Vince: Hello Majda. I hope I am saying that right. LOL. First off, let me say, thank you, thank you, thank you! I come to Baltimore two times a year! I will be at the Comedy Factory either in Jan or Feb of '06. I will e mail you as soon I get the date. How far is Rockville from Baltimore? I hope its close enough for you to make the drive. Thanks again for the compliments. "Attirant et Charmant." Right now I am blushing in a foreign language. LOL See you soon. Vince 7.19.05 Sara: You are hilarious!!! I just saw your 1/2 hour on Comedy Central Presents. Please come to Sacramento, CA (or somewhere close!) and I will bring as many friends as I can to see you! Vince: Hey Sara. I have not been back to Sacramento in two years! That's an outrage! LOL. I am trying to get a date in '06. The last club I played there was in a part of town they called "Old Sac?" As soon as I am back I will e mail you and that way you can bring EVERYONE you know. Thanks for watching me. Vince 7.18.05 Dom: You're right, we are surrounded by ignorance, and I assure you, you aren't the only one who sees it. Thanks for saying it out loud Vince: Hey Dom. You are very welcome. I will continue to say it out loud. Don't worry. Thanks for watching. Vince 7.18.05 Brother J: I just heard you for the first time on satellite radio XM COMEDY. You had me crackin' up. I like the consciousness you bring along with the humor. There are not too many comedians who are funny and enlighten at the same time. Keep up the excellent work. You have just gained a supporter (I don't like the word fan, it is short for fanatic, and I am not a fan of anyone). I will tell my friends about you. Vince: Brother J. Thanks for listening. I will do my best to keep to keep them laughing while raising the level of consciousness. Thanks for the support. Vince 7.5.05 Kevin: I'm 19 and I've been doing stand-up comedy for about a year now and I was just curious if you had any advice for an aspiring comic. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Vince: Hey "Kevin White." The best thing I can tell you is, if you love it, keep doing it. Its not easy. Try to write jokes that come from a real place. Don't make shit up if don't have to. Try to talk about things that truly affect you. That way all your jokes are unique. I hope this helps in some way. Keep it up. Vince 6.22.05 Mendy: I just finished watching you on Comedy Central Presents and just wanted to say "Thank God for Tivo" and that you are brilliant, I laughed the whole show and made my husband watch it on his lunch break, he couldn't believe I would make him but a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do, however I don't think he liked hearing "Omgosh look at him, he's so fine, isn't he fine sweetie? oh come on now, you know for a guy he's hot!",eventually he got tired of hearing me go on and on about how hot you are so he finally agreed with me hehe but in the end he said he really enjoyed it as well! And I just wanted to say since we are on the subject of "you" hehe that you are the hottest comedian I have ever watched perform, and the glasses..................."omg" sorry have a thing for glasses and just needed a moment there...)) OK i will let you get back to doing your thing but before I go I was wondering if you have ever performed in Lexington or Louisville Kentucky? And if not will you be perhaps performing in either or someday? I am at least 1.5 hours away from Lex and 3 from Louisville, I live in the middle of no where ..so I have to travel to enjoy myself lol Vince: Mendy! You're hilarious! I can't believe you made your husband watch me on his lunch break. The man is trying to eat. The fact that he did means he must really love you. You have to be very careful coming between a man and his sandwich. I will be in both Louisville and Lexington in '06. Right now I am working on a date in Lexington. FEB 14th-19th at Comedy Off Broadway. I will know for sure in a couple of weeks. So check back to my site to see if I have it on my schedule. I will also e mail you as soon as I find out. That way you can see me live. Bring your hubby. Don't worry I'll pack a sandwich for him! Thanks for the compliments. Vince 6.22.05 Patricia: Just saw you on Comedy Central. You are great! Keep it up -- you'll be one of the top. Guaranteed! From a fan, not a stalker. Vince: Patricia. I really appreciate the compliment. I cant quit now. I am in it too deep. Thanks again for being a fan. All though you can stalk me. As long as its from your living room. LOL. Vince 6.22.05 Rita & Bill: Hi Vince, my fiance and I just caught your appearance on "Comedy Central Presents." We love ya! Will you be performing in San Diego, CA? Please let us know. We think you're hilarious! Vince: Hello Rita & Bill. I will be in San Diego sometime in '06. I will let you know as soon as I get a date. Thanks again for watching. Good luck with the marriage! Vince 6.22.05 Anthony: Just wondering if you will ever be performing in the Buffalo, NY area at all? I checked out our special on Comedy Central and thought you were great Vince: Hey Anthony. Thanks for watching. I have not been back to Buffalo in a while. I know they have a few clubs up there. I will do my best to get back. I will shoot you an e mail as soon as I do. Thanks again. Vince. 6.17.05 Kristen: Just want to let you know how much I enjoy your intelligent, biting, real sense of humor! You're Great, man! Idiots are all around!!!! I totally get your jokes Vince: Kristen. Thank you for the compliments. Thanks for helping me fight these idiots! Keep watching. Vince 6.17.05 Bill: just wanted to say I just finished watching your Comedy Central Presents show and you are one of the best comedians I have seen in a long time. Straight forward good humor is somewhat of a rare thing today. There are too many comedians relying on gimmicks and flash that you clearly do not need. If I see another Adam Sandler movie with the "You can do it" catch phrase or a 'You might be a redneck" show I think I am going to be ill. I look forward to seeing you if you get back to Atlanta and would look forward to a Dave Chappelle type show with your great insight on people and life. Vince: Bill. As soon I get to Atlanta I will let you know. Chappelle is on of my favorites. I think a lot of comics don't care about insight, truth or anything else that really matters. Not to say that's wrong, I just would like to see more of it as well. Thanks for the support. Vince 5.25.05 David: Are you going to NY or NJ anytime soon? Vince: Hey David. I am in NY and NJ. I will be at Rascals Comedy Club in West Nyak, NY, NOV 17th-20th. I will also be at Rascals in Mt Clare, NJ, DEC 1st-4th. See you then! Vince 5.2.05 Roni: I plan on attending your next performance at the Ontario Improv. Please e-mail the dates or month you might come back. Roni Vince: Roni. As soon as I am Improv I will let you know. Thanks. Vince 5.2.05 Polly: Great, great show! Thanks for the realism and honesty. I hope you go far. Damn, guess I'll have to remove those 26 inchers now. What a bummer. Vince: Hey Polly. You don't have to remove those 26's. Just get a tractor! YEEE-HAW! You're welcome. Thanks for coming out. Vince 4.26.05 Yoli: This is Yoli-I saw your show (twice!) in Troy recently and am Anne's friend. I enjoyed the opportunity to meet you and wanted to write to say thanks for your message and for raising awareness. I was just listening to the radio and heard a McDonald's commercial for breakfast sandwiches during which the female announcer was doing it slam poetry style and no sooner had she finished, the music began to groove, hip hop of course. I might not have paid attention to it before but it made me think stop and think based on what you shared about how media attempts to use music to reach different audiences. Did you come up with a name for the show yet? Vince: Hey Yoli. How are you? I am sorry you had to sit through my act (twice!) And you did it without a lot of alcohol, that speaks volumes. LOL. The next time you order a McDonald's breakfast sandwich, "Moon Walk" up to the counter. I bet you they'll give you a discount! I haven't come up with a name yet. I am still working on it. I'll keep you posted. Vince 4.25.05 Jason: I just got back from seeing your show. I have to admit that I didn't know anything about you before coming to see your show, and the only reason I came is because I won the tickets earlier today. However, I will say that it is the best live stand up that I have ever seen. I believe, as so few people seem to do, that part of a comedians job is to point out to the unaware masses just how idiotic the societal norms we live by can be. Or at least to speak out against things that are unjust and incorrect. I was both thrilled and very impressed with not only how aware you are with the problems that humanity has, but also how well you could express them and maintain a high level of entertainment. I was also pleased that while you did focus primarily on the cultural struggles of African-Americans, you still diversified and discussed some issues pertaining to other ethnicity's. There were a couple of things that I particularly enjoyed about your performance. I would encourage you to keep the a cappella joke in, despite the few people who got it. It is an absolutely brilliant joke. I liked your discussion (or rant if you prefer) about how the media is affecting our children. I appreciated how you applied this not only to how rap music and the basketball dream affect African-American children, but as to how the bullshit ideals of beauty destroy the self esteem of white females (and, in my opinion, just about everyone else as well.) I truly applaud you for taking even your dirty jokes and turning them into a subject that tried to open peoples minds. I am referring to your segment on the pussy (which was hilarious) and taking it into why we (talking about white males here) should be so concerned with how or why they shave. Bravo. Finally, I would have to say that your decision to go on at least half an hour after the show was supposed to end speaks a lot about who you are. You are not someone who is doing your job just for the money, but are someone who truly cares about what you are doing. You spoke about how integrity is important to you, and I would say that you demonstrated that you had it in this show. Please let me know the next time you will be in Central Illinois, particularly in Bloomington/Normal, because I would love to come to another one of your performances. Thank you once again for a terrific show tonight. Vince: Hey Jason! Thank you so much for coming out that night. Also thanks for the compliments. I can't tell you how much it means to me that you "get it." It seems like were on the same wave length. Its not easy to speak your mind, but I am thankful that I am doing it in way that people like yourself appreciate it. I will be at the Funny Bone in Springfield Ill. May 20th & 21st. Come out again. Let me know and I will get you tickets! Thanks again, Vince. 4.19.05 Joseph: Thank you for the everything! Not only are you an awesome comedian, but you stayed long after your show just to talk to the people in the office. Sorry that I left mid conversation by the way, I was already 15 minutes late for class. It definitely made my day when I found an autographed copy of your CD and DVD on my desk when I came back the next day! Also, I appreciate all of the comedian to comedian advice. Long story short, Thank You! PS I used the Mitch Hedberg joke with the set-up that you suggested. It went over well with the crowd and after the show a few people mentioned it to me. Sorry about the late response by the way. Vince: Joseph. You are more than welcome. I loved hanging out afterwards. Keep up the writing and make sure you get a lot of stage time. Take care. Maybe I will run into you on the road one day. Stay true to yourself. Vince 4.18.05 Ms. Taylor: Finally!! I scoured the Internet looking for you and couldn't remember your last name. I thought it was Martin. I saw you on Comedy Central and you were absolutely hilarious! I too, became an instant fan. If you are ever in PHX. please let me know so we can come see you! I would love a picture with you! You must be well-educated, you are well spoken. If you would send me a picture, I would love it! Amongst the excitement I forgot to ask "How old are you?" "What gender do you prefer?" "Have you ever been to the Tempe Improv? If not, hurry up!" "Have you ever considered modeling?" "Are your parents proud?" Vince: Ms. Taylor. Wow! I don't know where or how to begin. First off, thank you so much for the compliments. Thank you for being an instant fan. I have been to the Improv in Tempe. I hope to come back soon. I would be happy to send you a picture, I just need an address. Last but not least, I am old enough....I LOVE women...I've never considered modeling and my parents are VERY proud of me. Thanks again for watching. See you when I come to PHX. Vince 4.6.05 Tameka: My name is Tameka. I was looking a comedy central and I saw your act. I kept telling myself that you looked familiar but I couldn't figure out why. I went back to my old scrap book and I found a photo of you there. I once met you in Seven Springs...a ski resort in Pittsburgh, PA for a conference and then again in Altoona, PA at Penn State University. I was at the same time proud that you have made it so far. I always knew that you would. I'm not sure if you remember me but it was good to see you again. The reason that I am writing to you is because I just wanted to know how you were doing over the years. Vince: Tameka. I remember the NACA conference in Seven Springs. I kind of remember Altoona. You'll have help me out a little, sorry. Thank you for remembering me! I have been doing well. If you still have those pictures, send me a copy. I would to see them. Take care, I don't know where you're living but good luck and thanks for watching, Vince 4.4.05 Robin: Just wanted you to know that we saw you on comedy central Fri. Night. You've lost weight. Aren't they paying you enough? Really, Vince, you looked great. I'm proud of you. I'll sign up for your email news so I can see what you're up to. Keep up the good work. Harlem in Columbus Po-leeeeeeze Vince: Robin. Thank you so much. Yeah I went on the "Broke Diet." It does wonders. When you don't have money, the weight just comes right off! When I come home I will let you know. Thanks again. Vince 4.4.05 Ben: My name is Ben from Linfield College in Mcminnville Oregon and I just wanted to say that your act was awesome and I hope you don't think we are all as ignorant and ridiculous as some of the questions we asked. It didn't seem to phase you which was way cool. Thanks for making the trip out and making it such a long set. I will keep my eyes open for you in the future and I hope good things come your way. Good luck. Vince: Ben. I had a blast! I didn't think the questions were that ignorant. I liked the students. Tell everybody I said hey. Vince 4.4.05 Katrina: I must say, you, are a fine man. How old are you and when are you coming to Arizona? Vince: Katrina. I am 68 years old. I will in Arizona soon. I cant wait to meet you. Bring some Ben Gay and Geritol. Thanks. Vince 4.4.05 Tamara: Hello & thank you for an entertaining comedy special. My name is Tamara and I live in Chicago. I had given up on Comedy because a lot of comedians are too vulgar. I just happened to leave the TV on while I was working on the computer tonight, and your program caught my attention. I could only hear, so I got up to discover, "It's a brother...and it's a brother that has a cool calm stage presence." You were on point! You kept my attention, and that is hard to do (it is like I have ADD when it comes to TV and movies). I found your website to see if you were coming 'to Chi-town anytime soon and I see you will be at Zanies the 26th-30th. I will definitely catch you on one of those nights. Great Show! Vince: Tamara. I will be at Zanies. Please come out and bring everybody you know. Don't give up on us yet. There are still a few comics left who something more to talk about than just sex and mindless BS Thanks again, see you soon. Vince 4.4.05 Scott: Saw your show on Comedy Central last night, and my wife and I both want to see you live. Any chance you'll be in/around the Philly area, anytime? Ever? Please? Vince: Scott. I will try to get to Philly sometime this year. So hang in there. I also will be in Atlantic City. Maybe that's close enough for you and your wife to come out to see me live. I will let you know. Thanks a lot. Vince 4.4.05 Bill: My wife and I caught you on Comedy Central. Great Stuff, kinda edgy! Winter is over, come to Toledo.She thinks you're cute. Don't come 'round here, ah keel ya Vince: Bill. Sounds like you have a lovely marriage. I wouldn't do anything mess that up. But I will e mail you when I am in Toledo at Connections. If I am there in the summer and it's real hot I've got to warn you, I'll be wearing fitted T-shirts and jeans. So you may not want to bring the wife. LOL. Thanks again, Vince 4.4.05 DeLaine: I am sitting here watching you on comedy central and I must say I am truly impressed by you...not to mention you have me sitting here laughing out loud. Add to that that you are a good looking man just makes it a bonus. The grammar thing (my mother was an English teacher and passed the bug down to me) and I hear and notice the same thing all da time! oops! lol I just wanted to share that with you, keep up the good work and maybe you can come down to San Antonio sometime. We would do you right.....I wish you well in what you do Vince: Hello DeLaine. I will do my best to get down to Texas. When I do I will e mail you. That way you can see me live. I wont do you wrong... Thanks again for watching, Vince 4.4.05 Cheyenne: I'm Cheyenne, I'm a student at OIT (Oregon Institute of Technology) I was the short one who ask for 2 pictures with you lol anyway I saw you at the campus last night and I have to say you did an absolutely great job! Oh my God you're hilarious! I think you should go to Montana State University in Bozeman and do a show there, the town is smaller than Klamath Falls but its a college town and I am sure the people there will love you, I will be going there next year, so yeah you should go there! that would be awesome! Open Latte!!! LOL! Vince: Cheyenne. I remember you. What's up? How did the pictures turn out? Thanks a lot for coming to see me. I would love to perform at Montana State. Good luck next year. Hopefully I will see you there. Vince 4.4.05 Lisa: Just finished watching you on comedy central with my family (self, husband, 13-year-old son). We all loved it! I have a request that I would like you to consider please. I am changing careers and becoming a high school English teacher and would like to use the bit you did on language in a class I am teaching next week. Is there somewhere I can download it -- or is it already on one of your CDs? It was a great bit about adult humans asking for "doze" batteries, etc., and would add to the lesson I am preparing on BVE/AAVE for an undergraduate history of the English language class. (I would like to keep it and use it in future classes in high school as well.) The point of this lesson is that while BVE (which I am assuming you know is the academic shorthand for Black Vernacular English) is a legitimate dialect with its own rules of grammar , etc., it is not always the most useful choice for every situation a speaker may encounter. It's all about what we in the teaching biz call "code switching" (every profession has jargon, and academics just love the stuff). You can surely figure out what it means -- know how to use more than one style of communication and use the one that best suits your purposes at the time; don't interview at a white shoe law firm in BVE, don't interview for a position in a hip hop group in "standard" English. There is probably a lot you can do with this in future routines. Please let me know how to get a copy of this bit, and whether you have other language bits as well. I plan to use intelligent comedy as much as I can in my teaching, and am making a collection that so far includes George Carlin and Lenny Bruce ("to is a preposition") -- so you are in very good company. I am not going to have to bleep your routines as much either -- which will be helpful in a high school or junior high school environment. PS: To whom do I direct the suggestion that you might want to play the Staller Center here at Stony Brook University? That would be great! Vince: Lisa. Thanks a lot. I know about of Black Vernacular English, but I've never seen BVE. I would love for to use the language routine in class. My CD "Open Latte" and DVD "The Morris Code" has a lot of things you can use including the whole language routine. I have to let you know it has curse words in it. It doesn't have much but it does have some in that routine. I don't think the High School kids wont be that offended. I'm sure they heard and said worse. Thanks again for being a fan! Tell the rest of the family I said hey. Good luck in your new career. I would love to play Stony Brook. If you're serious, go to my site and click on bookings. My college agent's info is right there. Hope to see you soon. Vince 4.4.05 Tony: Hello, Vince. I just saw your comedy special on Comedy Central, and I was very impressed. Not only were you hilarious, but obviously very smart. So, I had to Goggle you and came across your site. And I bought your DVD too! Good stuff. I can't wait to watch it. I would love to know whenever you're coming to Cincinnati, Ohio. (Don't worry, we're not all racist. Just the cops.) I hope you are coming to this area soon. I'd be bringing all my friends. Congratulations, and good job on a great show. Vince: Tony. Thanks for watching and buying my DVD. I was just there in Cinci. I was at Go Bananas. I am sorry we missed each other. The next time I am back I will e mail you. Bring all your friends. Tell all the racists cops I said to take off there sheets and come out too. They might learn something. Thanks again, Vince 4.4.05 Joe: Saw you on Comedy Central and loved your act. Appreciate your risks and your routine. Best of luck in the biz. Vince: Hey Joe. Thanks a lot. Keep watching. I promise will be taking more risks. Vince 3.28.05 Adriana: I watched your Comedy Central special when it aired in March. I was truly impressed and became and instant fan. So ever since then I been looking at the website to see when you will be in Chicago and telling all my friends about the show. Trying to get people together to come see you. Of course you are coming when I am already scheduled to fly out for a friend's wedding!! Why!!!! So the question is when will you be back? And can I get a head so not to miss it. Vince: Adriana! Don't go to the wedding. Tell them you'll be at the next one. LOL. I am sorry you wont be there. I don't know when I'll be back but when I do I will let you know. Tell your friends to still come out. If you want, you can come see me at the Funnybone in Bloomington Ill, April 21st-23rd or in Springfield Ill, May 20, and 21st if its not to far. Thanks again. Have fun at the wedding. Vince 3.28.05 Sonia: I think you are a great comedian/speaker. You really made me and my friends laugh a lot when we saw you at the college of Southern Idaho. Thanks for taking the time to come we really enjoyed your performance. I'm really looking forward to seeing you April 1 on Comedy Central, I can't wait I'm so excited! Apart from being a good speaker you are a really great dancer my friend and I really enjoyed dancing with you and taking a picture with you. Thanks. Well, hope you are well, take care and good health . God bless. Vince: Hello Sonia. You're so welcome. Tell your friends I said hey and thanks for the dance! If you can, send me a copy of the pictures I want to put them up on the site. Thanks, Vince 3.21.05 Robert: My name is Robert and I just recently watched you perform at our college in Twin Falls. You killed over here. I noticed that you were extremely cool when the guy threw the soap onto the stage (he made NO DIFFERENCE because of the way you shut him down). After the show you were signing CD's and DVD's, and I asked you what I could do to start my stand up career. You gave me some advice that I took to heart, but I would like to know a lot more before I start. I think you could teach me a lot about stand-up (because you have something that LOTS of other comics forgot, ability to reach the people, which is the most important thing about stand-up). Maybe there could be a way we could contact each other if you would consider helping me. You can just contact me. Don't worry if you cant, all im asking for is a reply. Vince: Robert. I remember you. Thanks for the compliments. I could try to help as much as I can. I am little busy. Whatever questions you have just email me here and I will do what I can. My advise right now is to try to speak from the heart when you're on stage. I mean everything doesn't have to be "honest" but as long as believe in what you're saying it will be a lot funnier. Also it doesn't hurt to carry your own soap...because you never know when you'll have to "clean" it up. Talk to soon, Vince 3.21.05 Vance: Hey, I saw your show at the College of Southern Idaho, it was great, I was laughing the whole time, and when that guy gave you the soap and told you to wash your mouth out, I wish he would have stuck around, that would have been really funny. I thought the best part was when you started making jokes about the stupid laws in Idaho, and you ended your routine by saying we should all go to Pocatello, find the ugliest horse around, go fishing off of it, while getting our dicks sucked. Some of the laws on the books are so stupid all you can do it laugh at them. Thanks for coming. Vince: Vance! I wish the "soap boy" would have stayed as well. To bad. The laws in your area are crazy and ancient. Good luck and try not to break them. I do think there should be one law added. There should be a law that says "If you're are an adult and you're easily offended by a 'Curse' word, you should wake up, and learn to live outside that bubble you created in your narrow mind and join us in the REAL FUCKING WORLD! Oh I'm sorry..join us in the REAL COPULATING WORLD! There, that's better. Hey man thanks again, Vince 3.21.05 Jill: You did an awesome job in Twin Falls. Thanks. Maybe my 13 year old will be a stand up comic just like you. You made quite the impression on him. Thanks again Vince: Hey Jill. A.K.A. "Mom of the year!" You're so welcome. Tell your son I said hi. He made quite the impression on me too. Vince 3.8.05 Keli: We are just checking up on you, seeing how you are doing? The toys you have gotten the kids are still intact (that's a suprise to Mark and I), anyhow Mark wants to know when will you be back in Columbus to see the family. And/or do a show? well hope everything is going well with your job and personal life too. Mark and I seen the new listing WAY 2 GO on your hopefully new TV show (represent, represent...!!!!!!) Vince: Hey Keli, Mark and the rest of the "Fam." You're so welcome for the toys. I will be back sometime in the summer to do a show. As soon as I find out I will let you know. Tell Breannah, Deanna and Jonathan I said HI! Love you guys talk to you soon. Uncle Vince. 3.8.05 Brad: I saw your show tonight, and wanted to say it was the best act I have seen in a long time. Very funny. At the same time very thought provoking. Vince: Brad. Thanks for coming out to tonight. I appreciate the support. Keep watching for me. I will be provoking thoughts for a while. Vince 2.28.05 Trish: When will you be back in the Los Angeles/OC area? Vince: Hello Trish! I don't have an exact date when I'll be back in the OC. As soon as I do I will e mail you. Thanks a lot. See you soon. Vince 2.28.05 Kyle: Just wanted to say that your show at Embry-Riddle on the 25th of Feb was absolutely hilarious. Keep up the good work!!!! I'd actually seen your comedy central show earlier that day. You killed at Riddle! Drop by Prescott sometime and we will take ya to Walmart! Vince: Kyle. I cant wait! Maybe we can take all the Embry students and put them on a big ass buss and go touring all the Wall-Marts around the Country. I had a blast! Tell EVERYBODY I said hi. Take care. Vince 2.24.05 Paul: Hey Vince, I didn't know how else to get hold of you. Enjoyed working with you in Indy, as always. I took a look at your schedule and I have some additional dates for you if you want them. I noticed you are at the VU this summer, or if you get to K.C., Des Moines, or Omaha in the foreseeable future..I've got some additional work that wouldn't be too far out of your way. Saw your Shorties watching Shorties, it was a little strange hearing what is a fantastic piece of material and seeing the animators vision of what that might look like. I enjoyed it. Vince: Paul. It was good seeing you again. I would love to do some dates for you. Just let me know, so we can go over the schedule. Let me know, Vince 2.22.05 Stephanie: I caught your show on Comedy Central and thought it was very good. You are funny, polished, intelligent, and fine. Honestly, I almost didn't care if you were funny or not, but like you, I share the same peeve with people who use incorrect English or have poor grammar. I really liked the skit on that subject.(by the way, Tell Steve to keep his mouf closed). When are you coming to the Philly/South Jersey area? Vince: Hey Stephanie. Thanks for watching. I haven't been to the Philly area in a while. I have to get back soon. As soon as I find out, I will e mail you. I will tell Steve to keep his mouf closed. Thanks, Vince 2.21.05 Lillian: I just saw you for the first time on Comedy Central. What a great performance -- very different from what I'm used to seeing from most comedians. I liked hearing someone making fun of ignorance instead of adding to it. I'd ask when you're going to make it to Las Vegas, but -- considering the abundance of ignorance here -- I'd bet not any time soon. PS Great smile! Vince: Lillian. I am in Vegas at least 4 times a year. I will be at Laff Trax in Palace Station soon. Thanks for "getting me" I will e mail you when I am there next. PS- I am still smiling. Vince 2.21.05 Rose: I'm thinking about doing stand-up, but I wonder if my age is going to be a barrier. You see I'm 19; and worse -- a female. Actually, what's really worse is that I'm an English major; so I figure if I'm going to be poor the rest of my life, I might as well be funny. (That was my feeble attempt at a joke.) Anyway, I guess I'd like to know if you think that I should enroll in Theater 101 to help with my stage presence. Yay? Nay? Should I expose myself (no, not **that** kind of expose, silly) to a more comedic atmosphere (whatever the hell that is)?? Looking forward to hearing from you (and breaking the glass ceiling someday). Vince: Hey Rose. I think you should GO FOR IT! It might be your calling. If don't try, you'll never know. I also think you should take the class. It can only help. Give it a try and let me know what happens. Good luck! Vince 2.21.05 Bjusino: Dallas, TX When? Vince: I am coming to Dallas. When? I don't know. I will let you know as soon I find out.Thanks.Vince. 2.21.05 Melissa: I enjoyed your views on life. Vince: Thanks Melissa. Keep watching for more of my views. Vince 2.21.05 Paul: Saw you on Comedy Central (2/18). Brilliant. Great flow. Great material. "Beer and a shot..." promo bumper doesn't do your set justice....any . dates in PA? Vince: Paul. Thanks for watching. I will be in Pittsburgh at the Funnybone March 24th-26th. If you're around the area come out. Maybe we can have beer and a shot. I'll buy the water! Thanks again. Vince 2.18.05 Berk Eye Care Girls: Vince, All the Berk Eye care girls say hi and we want to know when you are coming back to Columbus for a show. We saw in some of your other e-mails that a couple people made mention of your signature "black frames"....any luck finding another? Hopefully, we will see you soon! Come Home! Vince: Hello GIRLS! As soon as I play in Columbus you know you will one of the first to know. Tell everybody I said hi. I am still looking for some more frames. I think they are discontinued. I hope not. I will be so bummed. I will be in soon. Vince 2.14.05 Harold: How you doing vince my name is Harold Umber I live in highland park, Michigan but I do standup at mark ridley's comedy castle and I love your work and I can relate I'm surrounded by ignorance everyday when I go to school I'm not gonna say whose ignorant but I'am surrounded by it. I can't wait to see you when you come to royal oak to the comedy castle in April. I'll be there you recognize me I'll be the only 16 year old in the audience with my Mom. I hope I get to meet you I'd love to tell you about my comedy style and what I tell jokes about and maybe get some tips on writing. My Mom likes you to she said she likes your controversial jokes I got your special on tape and I watch it everyday. Type back I'd love to hear your message. Vince: Hey Harold! I cant wait to meet you in April. Only 16 and wanting to do comedy, that says a lot. It sounds like you are off to a good start. Keep it up. Maybe you can do a guest spot when I am there. I would love to watch and give you some pointers. Tell Mom I said thanks. I will see you both in April. Vince 2.4.05 Vita: I enjoy your comedic style. When are you coming to Texas I would love to see your live standup? I will also be in Virginia, New York, Florida this summer. So if you will be in any of those areas please let me know. Continue being unique. Vince: Hello Vita. I will be in all of the states sometime this year. I don't have the exact dates right now. Keep checking back. I will have it posted. Also I will e mail you when I am coming to Texas. Thanks, Vince 1.31.05 Nightengales: We saw you in Irvine @ The Improv...I'm the one who almost spit my wine on the guy in front of me from the a cappella joke...your set was great and I'm looking forward to the DVD and CD...let us know when you're back in the area- you should be headlining! Vince: Thank you guys for getting the a capella joke! I love that one. I dont think I will be headlining there soon. I was told that my message is "to powerful" to headline there by the powers at be. Its just one of the many things I have to go through in my career. Oh well, one day! Thanks again. Vince 1.24.05 Sean: Hey I had the pleasure of being at your show when you were in Cincinnati this year and you are hilarious. I don't know if you know about the Comedy Central Stand Up Showdown (IM sure you do) but I know that guys like Mike Birbiglia are sending out emails to everyone on his list telling them to vote for him. He is doing very well at the moment, and I thought to myself, Mike is pretty funny, but not as funny as Vince. I think you deserve to but up there in that top 5, even #1. There are only a few days left, but I have voted for you several times, but I guess one voice just isn't enough. Well, anyway, put me on your mailing list cuz I would like to know what's up! Vince: Sean. I've known about the Stand Up Showdown. I got so lazy and forgot to send out emails. If I win cool, If I don't, cool. Thanks anyhow for voting for me. I will put you on my list and the next time I am in the area I will let you know. Thanks for the support, Vince 1.19.05 James: I saw you last weekend at the Ontario Mills Improv. I was the guy who said he was from Pittsburgh. I'll be in Pgh. On March 10th & 11th I'll check to see f you're in town. My comment is that I think you have something new and different, kinda the Mr. Belvedere of comedy. You'll have to research that one, I'm an old guy.... I purchased your DVD, we're still laughing. I had not heard of anyone on the bill that night just went on a whip. Glad I did, great show all around. I think you have star material & I've never written to a performer till now Vince: Hey James! Mr. Belvedere? I will have to do my research. I am glad you came out, especially not knowing who the hell I was. I will be in Pittsburgh on March 24th-26th at the Funnybone in Station Square. If you are around, please come out to see me again. Thanks for the compliments and the support. Vince. 1.17.05 Willene: I saw you in Chattanooga TN just before Christmas. You were great. It was the show with the truckers that you kept joking with. Also the drunk guy walked in front of the stage & you just played so well off of the audience. Thanks for the laughs! Vince: Willene. Thanks for laughing. Drunk truckers! Gotta love'em. The next time I am your area I will let you know. Thanks again, Vince 1.12.05 Calana: So I am flipping through channels the other day and there you are on Comedy Central! I am not sure if you remember me but I met you at High Energy on the OSU campus with a couple of your friends. I think one of them used to see my friend, Rachel, for a little bit. We would sometimes hang at our apartment on Lane Avenue. I'm sure you meet tons of people bur does any of this sound remotely?? Anyway, I have often thought of you over the years I wondered if you were still pursuing your comedy career. I can't tell you how happy it made me to see you on national cable programming although I only caught the very end of your act. It is good to know you are still doing your thing and doing it well. So rarely do people really pursue their dream that I just get a kick out of seeing those who perservere. I wish you all the best and success beyond your dreams! Vince: Calana. I am so sorry that I don't remember but I do remember High Energy. Wow! That was a while and half ago! Thank you for the compliments and support. I will be at the Funnybone in Easton this year. As soon as I get the exact date I will e mail you. Thanks again, Vince 1.1.05 David: I actually just wanted to write to say that I saw your half-hour special on Comedy Central on New Years.. and to say it was the funniest one out of the whole bunch. Especially you describing your father... because my dad was just like that, almost to a tee. Instead of the Isley Brothers, however, he'd be listening to a country radio station. Sitting in the dark smoking his cigarette and everything. I laughed so hard at that portion of your bit because it brought back so many memories. Vince: Hey David. I am so glad I brought back some great memories of you and your dad. Some people don't believe me when I tell them. He loved to sit in the dark! Keep laughing. "CLICK!" 12.31.04 Deek: I just wanted to tell you how big of a fan I am of your work. It is like a breath of fresh air to see a black man who can combine humor and intelligence the way you do. I agree with many of your views on how ignorant our society can be. I look forward to one day seeing you perform if are ever in New York City. Keep it up! Vince: Deek. Thanks for letting me know I got fans in NY. The next time I am in the city I will let you know. I will keep it up! Vince 12.31.04 Ann: I saw you for the first time today on comedy central and I really enjoyed your routine. I was born in Cincinnati, Ohio and moved when I was nine to San Diego. I'll tell you this much it is very nice to see comedians like yourself coming from Ohio. You have a great routine and just keep up the good job. I wish I could catch you during a live performance. Take care. I am watching you and your are great. Vince: Ann, my fellow Ohio mate. Thanks for the support. When I am down in San Diego I will e mail you. You can catch me live! Vince 12.31.04 Rachel: Thank you for what you do! I just had a "chance meeting" with your 30-minute special on Comedy Central this afternoon. You are incredibly funny and enormously insightful ... a potent combination! I was lapping up your race commentary and loving it! I look forward to trying to catch you "live" when you come east again. Vince: Rachel. You are so welcome! All can I hope for is that they're more people like yourself that "get it." As soon as I come your way I will let you know. That way, you can lap me live! Thanks again. Vince 12.31.04 Ashley: Vince, I just saw your Comedy Central Show and I'm so feeling you on the horrible absue of the English language. One of my biggest pet peeves--I'm glad I'm not the only one! I'm signing up to get the e-mail announcement that VINCE MORRIS WILL BE ATTENDING THE UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND AT COLLEGE PARK in 2005...right? Just somethin to think about--I'll be right there front row if you come. Good luck in the New Year....you have a beautiful smile!. Vince: Hey Ashley. Thanks for watching. As soon as I perform at THE UNIV. OF MARYLAND you will be the first to know. Happy New Year to you as well. I will be in Baltimore at The Comedy Factory in May. See you in the front row! Vince 12.29.04 Chuck & Amy: Hey Vince- We just got home from seeing your show in Chattanooga , TN , and you were hilarious! We’re ‘readers’ too, and contrary to the stereotype, we’re not alone here. It’s great to hear social commentary WITHOUT the usual hate. Let us know when you’re back. Vince: Thanks for laughing. I really appreciate you "getting it." I will let you when I am back in your area. Take care. Keep reading! Vince 12.09.04 Angela: Chattanooga ... seriously? Come on, who in Chattanooga is going to appreciate what you have to say? Do you play a banjo? Point made. Memphis, on the other hand...now that is the place where your message is needed. Yeah, we just made the nations 4th most dangerous city, but don't let that scare you...deep down we are really receptive folks. Also, if you ever come through I am personally offering you free tattoo work as a way of saying thanks for your words of wisdom. As a daily witness to the mental slavery of a people via mainstream media...misogynist, violent radio, and the Hughley's (has anyone seen Bamboozled?)...your words are like water for a thirsty soul. Now perhaps you feel yourself above tattoos, and I hope that isn't the case...I would still like to extend a warm welcome to our damaged city. Vince: Angela. Thank you so much for your insightful comments. Even though I don't play a banjo, I am hoping that the people of Chattanooga will still appreciate what I have to say. I have not been to Memphis in a while. The next time I am there I will definitely stop by. The tattoo offer sounds nice. I don't have any so I think I need to start off slow, maybe a washable one-first, then I'll move up. In the mean time, I will continue quenching the thirsty souls of the willing. Hope to see you soon. Vince 12.03.04 Kristin: I saw u about 2 weeks ago at JR's in Erie and I thought you were great! I spoke with you afterwards about possibly coming up to my school, I will speak to the appropriate people and hopefully work something out! The people I came with for my step dads birthday couldn't stop talking about your act for days, most of your jokes were not only funny but insightful!! Keep it up!! And good luck with your career! Vince: Kristin. I remember you. Tell the people who came to the show with you I said thanks. I think your school is somewhere in NY. Hope to play there soon. Vince 12.02.04 Elizabeth: Just caught you on the Late Late Show, and just wanted to say you are not only funny, but intelligent and insightful. If you're ever in my area (Atlanta/Athens, GA) I'll be there and tell all my friends. Keep it up! Vince: Elizabeth. Thank you so much for watching. I will be in Atlanta Feb 10th thru 13th. I will be at the Funny Farm Comedy Club. Tell all of your friends! I'll see you then. Vince 12.02.04 Lisa: Hello Vince I saw you on Comedy Central and you had me rolling. I would really like to see your show in person will you be performing in Raleigh or Charlotte anytime soon. Vince: Hello Lisa. I perform at Charlie Goodnights in Raleigh. I haven't got a date yet for next year. As soon as do I will let you know. Thanks for watching. Vince 12.01.04 Sharon & Leo: My wife Sharon & I enjoyed your act, the 10:30 Saturday, at JR's. Your rapper piece about 'Dodo S--pants' was my favorite. We hope you return soon to Erie. Vince: Hey Sharon and Leo. Thanks a lot. I had fun at JR's. I will let you know when I am back in your city. Love, Dodo S--pants! 12.01.04 Traci: I caught your act on The Late Late Show with DL Hugley. "Two gold teeth for no apparent reason" friggin’ cracked me up! I nearly WET myself. You looked good on my TV, sunshine. Hope to see you there more often. Vince: Traci. Thanks for watching me on The Late Late Show. Hopefully you will see more of me. I am glad you didn't wet yourself, that could have been dangerous. Stay dry, Vince 11.22.04 Tony: Hi Vince I saw your show at the Palace Station the night you couldn't get that guy to even crack a smile I thought it was the best show I've seen in a real long time .Vince you had my whole group in stitches and thank you for signing your cd for my wife and taking a picture with her again you were great that night keep up the good work. Vince: Tony. Your welcome. Tell your wife I said hey. See ya soon. Vince 11.22.04 Lou: I enjoyed your show at Jokers in Dayton, OH last night. Thank you for signing my CD and speaking with me and my fellow struggling comedians after the show. Skippy and Heather say hello. You are an incredibly funny man..and handsome too. Vince: Lou. I had fun. Hope you enjoy the CD. Tell Skippy and Heather I said hi. Thanks, Vince 11.10.04 Joli: god bless, good head on your shoulders, and a sharp tounge. what more could a girl want? Vince: A FAT WALLET! Which I don't have, so thank you Joli for accepting me for what I really am..BROKE! 11.10.04 Melanie: I got a chance to see your set twice at JOKERS in Dayton, OH. It got funnier the second time around; when I let all the great jokes sink in. You might say it at all your clubs, but I truly believe in a sometimes emotionally void area like Dayton, if you can make these people respond then you’re destined for stardom. Don't forget, as an audience member said, sell you live album with music and "drop it like it’s hard." Thanks for the great time Vince: Melanie. Thanks for getting a double dose of me. Jokers is one of my favorite places to work. The crowds are so tough it forces me to be real. I've come up with a lot of my material there. So I'll keep "dropping like it's hard!" Thanks, Vince 11.10.04 Shana: Hey Vince how are you?? Doing great I see...This is Shana from High School..I can't wait to see you at the reunion..Talk to you then..Bye Vince: Hey Shana. How are you? Thank you for the support. Walnut Ridge forever! See you at the reunion. Vince 10.4.04 JT: Your the best I have ever heard! Cant wait to see you in person! Vince: Thanks JT! Vince 9.13.04 Monica: I love Vince's style of comedy. It embodies characteristics of intellect, that is so intriguing. I think I'm in love. 9.13.04 JoMonique: Please advise as to when your show will appear in Chicago area. Keep up the good work. It's always good to see and hear a brother who is not only handsome but well spoken. Jo:) Vince: JoMonigue I come to Chicago often. When I am there I perform at Zanies Comedy Club. I will let you know when I'm playing there again. Thanks, Vince 9.12.04 Tim: Vince, You are one of my favorites! I love the intellectual side of your routines and how you mesh that so well with the "laugh-out-loud" truth of what life is like today. You are on the mark and obviously a man with heart. All the best to you! Vince: Hey Tim. I do try to write from my heart. Its not always what people want to hear but..I believe if everybody likes you...you're doing something wrong. Thanks for enjoying my show. See you soon. Vince 9.12.04 Jenise: Please advise when Vince is performing in the Detroit Michigan area. Vince is an intelligent and extremely handsome man. I'd love to share my experience in dealing with ignorant people on a daily basis. I have to remind myself that everyone is not as smart as I am! Vince: Jenise I will be in Detroit in April of 2005. I will be performing at the Comedy Castle in Royal Oak. So stop by and we can talk about ignorant people forever. Thanks, Vince 9.4.04 Frank: I had the distinct pleasure of driving Vince - who worked for the same company I did - from the airport to the St. Louis Funnybone for his first audition several years ago. It's great to see that he is succeeding in pursuing his dream! Please extend a hello and best wishes for continued success. I always told him that I wanted to be his chauffer when he becomes rich and famous. Vince: Frank. How are you? Damn its been a long time. If you're still in St. Louis I will be there in 2005. As soon as I become rich and famous I will call you. They only catch is..you have to drive me around in an original US CHECK van. I hope you're well. Vince 8.30.04 Amanda: We caught your show at the Funny Bone last Sunday and your ability to engage the audience is impressive and refreshing. Rare is the person who can entertain through humor, and rarest are the ones like you who can educate the unsuspecting. I've been paying closer attention to TV commercials - spot on. The idea that athletes and hip hop sell...amusing and depressing at once (amusing to think that some exec thinks it will work, depressing because it probably does). I've been walking around in my flip flops thinking about your show and hope you return to Columbus soon. Oh, and love the linguistic humor. I have a special fondness for it (and a degree). Open Latte, that's a good one; your buddy Steve still think so? ;-) 8.9.04 Andrea: I really enjoyed your show. You're incredibly funny but have a very serious point to make at the same time. I definitely respect that. Awesome job. Vince: Andrea. Columbus is my home club. I always love performing at the Bone. Thanks for "getting" it. Vince 8.6.04 Joe: Big fan of your work. I think you are an insightful comedian with a great deal of talent. Your Comedy Central special was on of the funniest I have seen in a long time. In case you care, I was introduced to your comedy by Shawn Wilkinson and Paul Varnum. I work at AirNet with them. Look forward to seeing you at the Funny Bone this weekend. Vince: Joe I do care. Thanks a lot. Shawn and Paul are great friends of mine. I miss AirNet...breathing in 100 low led all night. It was fun. See you next time. Vince 7.12.04 Renee: I attended your Friday night show in Denver 7/9 and really enjoyed it. I had seen you on Comedy Central and was surprised to see that you were going to be in Denver. I also purchased your CD and it is really funny! I look forward to seeing more of you in the future. Take Care and it was nice meeting you. Vince: Renee. I am glad you liked the CD. I have a DVD coming soon. I hope to be back in Denver sometime in 2005. I will let you know. Thanks, Vince 7.30.04 Bethany: I saw you perform thursday, July 29th at Deja Vu in Columbia, Missouri. I just wanted to tell you that you are one of the funniest guys I have ever seen. Not to mention you make some very good points about today's society and how we act at times is pretty ridiculous. I was wondering when you were going to be back at the VU or if you had made plans to come back yet. Let me know. 6.29.04 KC: Are you coming east soon.... Just saw you on CCentral ......you are trancendent. Vince: KC. Am I coming east? How far east?....Africa! Please sign up on my site and I'll let you know. I play a lot of clubs out east. Thanks for watching. 6.23.04 Svetlana: I just saw your special on Comedy Central. I think your material is awesome. It is fresh and unique in it's own way. Being from Russia, I find it very difficult to laugh at simple American humor. Your special had me laughing my ass off! Thank you so much for bringing a smile to my face. I really needed a good laugh. Vince: Svetlana. Thank you so much for watching. I am glad you laughed your ass off! I have not played in the Boston area, but when I do..... we'll laugh, eat clam chowder, and drink Vodka! Just get crazy! Please sign up on my site so I can let you know when I'll be in your town. Thanks, Vince 6.22.04 Joe: I just saw your show on Comedy Central. You are a riot, man! Some of the funniest material I have seen in a while. I would love to see more. I am in the Norfolk, Va area. Please let me know if you are going to be in the area performing, or if you are just in the area, and want to hang out. Hope for some good news. Vince: Joe, I hope to have some good news for you soon. When I am in Norfolk we'll hang out. Vince 6.19.04 Coleen: Your show on Comedy Central last night had me laughing out loud--wonderful stuff! You emanate so much positivity--just the sort of thing the world needs right now. Hope to see you live sometime! 6.18.04 Andrei: Hey Vince, I just saw you 30 minute stand-up on Comedy Central Presents and I've gotta admit, you've got some original and interesting bits. Usually African-American comedians talk about the differences between the races but you did a great job of showing how people are just all screwed up in their own way. Great job bud, keep up the GREAT work. Oh, I just wanted to say that, unlike other African-American comedians, you were able to express some of Martin Luther King Jr's ideas through comedy. 6.12.04 Pat: Let me know when Vince Morris is coming to Maine! I have no idea if you'll make it to Maine but Vince Morris is the best. Saw you on cable's Comedy Channel on Comedy Central Presents. You are wonderful! You remind me of Bill Cosby! It is so hard to find comedy that is clean, intelligent and funny. I think it is the toughest comedy to do. You are a breath of fresh air. I'm requesting the Comedy Central people have you on more often and to sell DVD's with only you on them! And I am spreading the word among everyone I know about what a terrific comedian you are! So many people are waiting for an artist of your caliber! Funny, intelligent, and handsome too! Good grief. Where have you been hiding? Please produce DVD's with you and your comedy on them! Please write and star in a TV sit-com! The vacuum left by Cosby should be filled by YOU! Thanks for sharing your incredible talent with all of us, the public! Keep up the good work! Vince: Hey Pat! I will try to get Maine in 2005 so look out for me. Thanks a lot. Bill Cosby is one of my favorite comedians. I have so many different comics that I like. Any performer who respects the craft is always on the top of my list. I have a DVD coming soon titled THE MORRIS CODE. I will let you know as soon as it ready. Thanks again, Vince 5.4.04 Brian: I just caught your special on Comedy Central. Great stuff. My favorite comedians have always been those that managed to approach serious, insightful material with a cutting sense of humor...guys like Bill Hicks and Richard Pryor. Your set reminded me of them a great deal, but you have a voice that is all your own. I hope to see more in the future. Vince: Brian, thanks for the compliments, I love Hicks, and Pryor as well. Please, if you have not done so, go back to my site and sign up on the e-mail list, so that way I can let you know when I will in your area. 4.7.04 Irishrose: when are you coming to the Detroit Area? Make it soon, like this summer:) (Suggestion; Co-Co's House Of Comedy:)My neck of the woods:) Vince: Irish Rose I don't know when I will be in the Detroit area but please go back to my site and sign up on my e-mail list so that way you will be notified when I am in your area. |
2.27.06 Dianne: My husband and I caught your Comedy Central special some time ago, and you were great! We could not stop laughing. Can you tell me if you will be in the Nation's Capital sometime soon? We would love to see your show live. Vince: Dianne. Thanks I will be in Baltimore, at The Comedy Factory March 9th-11th. Tell all your friends to come out. Thanks for the support. Vince 2.20.06 Nate: Vince you are very funny. You cracked me up on the comic view show. Keep up the good work. Vince: Nate. I will keep it up. Thanks for watching. Vince 2.20.06 Brandy: I really appreciated your show on BET Comic View. You have a wonderful speaking voice and you should be at schools and colleges in addition to comedy. I have three little girls. They are 6,6,7, and Caucasian and African American. They already have the thought that they need straight hair and it should be blonde. All three are so beautiful it makes you want to cry. I tell them every day. They don't appreciate where they came from and are not old enough to understand. We live in Iowa. I do not truly think any young girls up here understand that they are wonderful. I felt like a lot of what you said they should have heard. Of course they were in bed. Thanks for a great show. Vince: Brandy. Thanks for watching. I am sure all three of your girls are beautiful. It is unfortunate that a lot of girls or people for that fact feel that they have to act like what the see and not trust themselves for who they are. All can do is just keep telling over and over how wonderful, smart and thankful they are. It may not seem like it works but it will. Keep it up and thanks for the support. Vince 2.20.06 Mia: I just watch the Big Black Comedy Show and saw your act for the first time. I absolutely loved it! Although I think the crowd needed to hear what you had to say, I'm afraid there's very little acceptance for "Cerebral Comedy" in Black Comedy! We have been so conditioned to buffoonery (SP) that we think that's all we are. To paraphrase what you said, we are always trying to "Out-Ni66a" each other. Anyway, I work for a predominately Black college in Houston and I was wondering if you'd be interested in coming to the university to do some Motivational Speaking (AKA "Your Act"). I work with students involved in a music industry internship and we've (I've) been discussing the state of Hip-Hop all year and I'd like to have an actual entertainer come in and share their views (as long as their are similar to mine...teehee) on Hip-Hop. It's so amazing that I bought this DVD because I usually don't watch "Comic View " type comedy! Anyway, these past three weeks the interns and I have been having this running debate about the use of the word Ni66a and how it has become a term of endearment especially in Hip-Hop. I plan to show your act to the interns on Monday then segue to discussion. I really hope we can discuss the possibility of your coming to Houston to meet with these students. P.S. You soooooooooooooo don't look like Rog!!!!!! Vince: Mia, Mia, ohh Mia. Thank you for the compliments. I would love to come your college to perform. I will somebody get in contact with you. There is so much I want to say but not in an email. I am glad you "get" it. I am so tired of the clowning, buffooning, modern day stepping and fetching. Nothing has really changed for my people except the amount of money they're paying us to perform in "Black" face. It wont stop either because money is the New and Improved form of racism. I can go on and on. I will later, but for now, thank you and I hope to see you on your campus soon. I will be talking to you soon. Vince-AKA Rog to people who think we all look alike. LOL 2.14.06 Alisha: Wassup Soy Latte Steve..Ya think that you might be coming through to the San Jose Comedy Club anytime soon? Love the comedy. Drop me A Line If you do. I was looking for your site early last year and couldn't find it. I'm glad that you got it up and going. I love it. Let me know. Vince: Alisha. What's up girl? I will be in San Jose area this year. I will at Rooster T's. I will let you know when I am there. I hope you're doing well. It looks like it. I will see you soon. Vince 2.13.06 Marcia: Remember me the Oprah chick at Walter Paytons who bought a DVD and kissed you ? I know you do and I MISS you already. You were hilarious but, you should have put me on the stage with you..Why well besides the fact that I am hot I, AM, too Man !! I have appeared on Oprah 6 times to talk in the audience. I was also a guest speaker for Montell Williams baby ...Let me know when you hit Chicago again and me and the Oreo crowd/BET will come again .. Since, I am a sister with BLACK/HISPANIC background but I grew up in all white town I was feeling you with your questions for the audience about how they feel about Blacks/WHITE. I can be proud of my professional vernacular that is what landed me my cool job which prints Oprah's Magazine, JET /Ebony and Star /Enquirer and Harry potter books and phone books and we are a billion dollar Magazine company. WE should be doing a magazine for Comedians like you. Well, God bless and keep rockin!! I am still laughing!! Vince: Marcia. Of course I remember you! How can I forget? Thanks for coming out and showing support. That town was a little different. It seemed like they lived in time warp. But I am glad you showed up. You truly are funny as hell. I will let you know when I am back in the area. I would love to talk to you about doing something for the magazine. I have something HOT! for the magazine. You will love it. Let me know if you're interested, email me and leave me some numbers to get hold of you. Thanks again. Vince 2.13.06 Jennifer: I'm quite curious to see if I'll get a response to this, and equally as curious if it will be from you. I just watched you after purchasing from itunes. Exactly what I needed after my week. Hilarious, yes. But thought provoking at the same time? Impressive. When are you performing in NYC so that I can see you live? Vince: Jennifer. I am sorry it took me this long to respond. Thanks for watching me on itunes. I am glad I helped your week. I will be in NY this Sept. performing with a tour group called The Sellout Comedy Tour! You have to come out, its one the hottest shows touring. I will email you to remind you. Also, what do I have to do to let you know its really me? Let me know. Vince...or is it? LOL. 1.16.06 Mike: Hey Vince. I got to see your show in November at Rascals at the Palisades Mall in Nyack, NY You may or may not remember me. You brought me up on stage (to represent the white man) and asked why we like to do things like Skydive and rock climb. My girlfriend took our picture, and I wanted to send it to you. I would like to know what you think. Vince: Big Mike. I do remember you. I had fun! Thanks for representing ALL White men. Tell your girl I said thanks for the picture. See you next time. Vince 1.11.06 Megan: No real question... just a comment. For some reason, one of the first things I notice about people is their teeth. Odd, I know. I just have to say that you have the whitest, nicest teeth! And a great smile. Come back to Cincinnati more often (specifically Go Bananas). The show was great tonight. Vince: Megan. Thanks a lot. I am smiling right now while typing. Thanks for watching my teeth, and my show! I will see you next time. Vince 1.11.06 Kathy: Saw you at New Years, want to thank you for the 4th grade teacher reference, I am one. Also the joke on those people who get killed who promote love, you should include John Lennon Vince: Kathy. I will include John Lennon that will be a nice addition. Thanks for enjoying the show. Good luck with the kids. Vince 1.11.06 Kendra: I went to your show in Columbus a bit before Christmas at the Funny Bone. Absolutely fabulous. As I mentioned to you after the show, it's just to bad that one of the intro comedians was an ignorant redneck. A friend and I were ready to go sit in the bar while we waited for you to come on! It was great hearing an intelligent and hilarious take on the social situation in the US and Columbus in particular. I'd love to get you and Columbus's mayor Coleman in a room together and be a fly on the wall! I bet it would be a productive meeting. Watching you chat with the President would be even more hilarious, but much less productive, I'm sure! Keep up the good work. I wish you could perform for high school students. They'd learn a lot, and have a good time doing it! It's so refreshing to hear a comedian with a brain!!! Vince: Hey Kendra. I am glad you stuck around. Believe it or not, I am used to ignorant people, White rednecks, Blacks, etc., they come in all varieties. Girl, I would love to be fly on the wall with me and Mayor Coleman in the same room! Thanks a lot for your support. I will be back in Columbus March 28th-April 1st performing with a touring group called The Sellout Comedy Tour! Its a hot show. I will email you to come out. See you then. Vince 1.3.06 Kim: It's wonderful to see strong, intelligent men of color with quick wit and great humor (not to mention a great smile to boot)! It was a pleasure meeting you last night (DEC 29th) after your show at Joker's Comedy Cafe in Dayton, OH (or whatever suburb you like to fill the blank with ). I look forward to watching the rebroadcast of your "Comedy Central Presents" special on Monday, Jan 2 ND as well as your appearance on ComicView and other appearances to come. I wish you much success in your career and I’ll certainly keep watch for your next appearance in Dayton (or Columbus ). Feel free to contact me the next time you're in town. Perhaps we can have a "latte" before the show. Vince: Hello Kim. It was a pleasure meeting you as well. Thanks for the compliments and support. I will be back in Dayton or (whatever suburb) this year. I will email you to let you know. I also will be in Columbus as well. Thanks again, and save me a "latte." Vince 1.3.06 Roxanna: I just caught your routine for the first time on comedy central. I spit Pepsi all over myself laughing. You owe me a new shirt. Vince: Hey Roxy! I am sorry about the shirt. Send my the bill and I'll see if I can take care of it for you. I am glad you enjoyed it. The next time you watch me I suggest you wear a bib. Take care. Vince 12.30.05 Jeff: I've been a fan of yours ever since I saw you on Comedy Central. So when I found out you were gonna be in Dayton, I absolutely had to see the show and I must say I wasn't disappointed one bit. That improvisational bit you pulled with that Ryan guy was absolutely hilarious. You have got to be one of the most quick witted comedians I have ever had the pleasure of seeing. Definitely keep up the good work. Vince: Jeff. Thank you for coming out to the Cafe. I had a blast with Ryan. I will back many times this year. I will let you know so you can come to see me again. Thanks again for being a fan. Vince 12.12.05 Michelle: My husband and I really enjoyed your show. We met you last month on the ship. I know you said you probably won't do it again but I have to tell you all of the people we talked to really enjoyed you as well. We will be there again next year and hope you will too. If not we'll look for you to do a show here in San Diego. Take care and I wish you the best in all that you do. Vince: Michelle! Believe it or not I did have fun. It was my first ship. I think I will another. I will try to get the same cruise next year. Tell your husband I said hi. When I am in your area I will let you know. (Still in the will?) That's amazing! YOU GO GIRL! Thanks for the support. Vince 12.12.05 Faith: Hi Vince, inquiring minds want to know if you are married? Vince: Faith. I have three babies momma's, six grandkids, one girlfriend, a fiance...no wait! I am sorry, I was describing a new sitcom on UPN. Please forgive me. I am not married. 12.6.05 Lenora: My girlfriends and I spent the weekend in Columbus last August and you happened to be performing at the Funny Bone that weekend. My friends and I have been waiting for you to come back, so we could plan another trip to Columbus. We see that you'll be in Columbus during the holiday week, but since it's so close to Christmas, we're unable to make it to see you. We were wondering if you'll be doing a show in Cincinnati soon or have you ever considered doing a show at the FunnyBone at Newport on the Levee. Vince: Leonora. I will be in Cincinnati at Go Banana's. Jan 5th-8th. So you and girlfriends can catch me then. Have a great holiday and I'll see you then. Thanks again. Vince 11.30.05 Martin: Just caught you doing stand-up on Comedy Central. I was channel surfing, and you caught my eye, so I stopped for the rest of the set. Socially conscious comedy? What a concept! Hope it catches on. Of course, that would be bad for you. Right now you are unique. The only one I know with a voice for change who is actually as funny as the easy-laugh comics. If everyone listens and follows suit, the entire world will be a better place, but you'd have less work. Hey, I can't wish that on you! So here's hoping you become wildly successful and everyone listens with a hypocritical ear and changes nothing. No wait, that's bad. Oh, man, you have me so confused! Vince |
