I'm ShatterBrained on xbox live and on the social club. I joined NODO, like probably most of you, after seeing broughy's videos. I'm working on improving my racing skills on GTA online because I'm terribly mediocre but I enjoy it quite a bit. In the real world I'm Jon David. I'm currently a comedian, writer, artist, and a computer programming nerd (basically I'll attempt any venture that keeps me from working a real job) with a past life in music and television production. My xbox live time has been limited recently but hopefully I'll get to meet more of you soon. I'm looking forward to being beaten countless times by all of you!

Noticed your avatar on another thread and had to come here to see if you did stand-up. That's so sick dude! I've actually considered doing that myself but I'm gonna put it off until I live somewhere that has a comedy club.

I've actually considered doing that myself but I'm gonna put it off until I live somewhere that has a comedy club. Thank's man. I've been doing it for several years. I used to live near a club but it closed so I do far too much traveling now to test material. I absolutely love it but the money has gone so far downhill for people like me who don't have a lot of headlining markets and wind up middling for comics who do. Unless I produce the show it's a real struggle most of the time but the people I meet and the chances I've gotten have been pretty cool. I just can't stop doing it. I'm focusing on starting a youtube channel that combines comedy with my other talents and interests (all of which don't pay well but maybe together they might) just to get a break from having to travel cross country to show some club owner I can be entertaining. Hopefully I just don't ruin everything. If you really wanna try stand-up just write 2 minutes and find an open mic somewhere. If the bug bites you you'll know it when a stranger laughs at you and you actually want it to happen again.

Yeah, I didn't realize money had went downhill, I just assumed it had always been shit. That's the one consistent theme I see among all of today's comedians: they all struggled for at least fifteen years or so before actually making real money. And I do plan to try an open mic sometime, just a matter of actually finding one!
