22.01.2022 FUN FACT: Did you know Asians invented karaoke? Too bad there ain't many Asians in mainstream music. 'Karaoke was invented in the 1970s by Daisuke Inoue, who worked to popularize it in Japan. By the early 1990s, karaoke has spread to the rest of the Asia, and it subsequently became popularized around the world as well.' I love to sing (not just parodies)... What are some of your favourite karaoke songs? Comment below :)... PS. Just some car karaoke singing Matchbox 20 - If You're Gone :D Hope you all have a fantastic week and keep cool!

17.01.2022 THE JOURNEY OF A THOUSAND MILES BEGINS WITH A SINGLE STEP.

12.01.2022 WHAT IS MY/YOUR PURPOSE WITH STAND-UP COMEDY? Firstly, Id like to express my gratitude for liking my page. Thank you very much! Just 6 months ago, I stumbled upon stand-up as a pillar to work on my communication, confidence and public speaking to develop my leadership skills, facilitate workshops and inspire others; and suffice to say - it has been a blessing. ... However in the past couple of days, Ive been wondering ultimately what is my purpose of doing comedy? The whole idea of getting on stage with a microphone and doing/saying whatever you can to illicit the most laughter from the black cloud sounds pretty absurd to me. Considering the time and effort to develop this craft. Realistically, what is the return? Is it worth it? Or is it best spent elsewhere? Perhaps it is just becoming an unhealthy addiction? Let me know what are you thoughts?

01.01.2022 HUMOUR IS POWER. Love this TEDx talk!

01.01.2022 FREQUENCY IS THE WAY TO GREATNESS. The School of Hard Knock Knocks (SHKK) introduced me to the world of Stand-up comedy, provided me with the confidence, foundational tools of the trade and a small army of like-minded budding comics whom have undergone 5-day of intensive training to harden the f**k up to ambush, infiltrate and dominate the local comedy scene. Unfortunately, the road to comedy greatness is an unforgiving, challenging and lonely road and Ive witnessed a few of... my comrades slain in the battlefield. Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! - Rocky Balboa. This year to date, I have only performed 14 total gigs since graduating from SHKK in June 2019. 1 - School of Hard Knock Knock Graduation 6-6-19 2 - Grassroots Variety Challenge 21-7-19 3 - Grassroots Variety Challenge 28-7-19 4 - Cranker Comedy 13-8-19 5 - Stand Up Comedy Graduation 23-8-19 6 - Open Mic @ Rhino Room 2-9-19 7 - Open Mic @ Aberfoyle Hub Tavern 6-9-19 8 - Cranker Comedy 1-10-19 9 - Comedy Wheel @ Brickroom Comedy 24-10-19 10 - Open Mic @ Rhino Room 11-11-19 11 - Australian Open Mic Challenge 13-11-19 12 - Feast Festival 15-11-19 13 - Feast Festival 16-11-19 14 - Movember Rain Comedy 23-11-19 I have three more gigs lined up before Im taking the rest of the year off to reflect, strategise and focus on joke/song writing. 1 - Cranker Comedy 3-12-19 - https://www.facebook.com/events/583611212383271/ 2 - The Loosey Goosey Comedy Show 5-12-19 - https://www.facebook.com/events/429116791080351/ 3 - Royal Variety Show: Xmas Special 18-12-19 - https://www.facebook.com/events/665276090672528/ Greatness demands frequency and consistency. Next year, Ill be upping the frequency and aim for 50-100 total gigs. Wishing you and your loved ones an amazing festive season! Boowie PS.
