Will You Be My Friend?

Let me begin by stating I'm very uncomfortable asking you to do this, because I think the whole thing is kind of ridiculous. In the business of stand-up comedy, myspace.com pages are the rage and for some comics, it has become a great promotional tool. I just put mine up (it needs a lot of work, still). I wanted to mention to any readers here to visit my site and you should learn a little more about me. I also am looking to start building up my "friends" list, so please click in to join. The one positive I could see coming from this would be to be able to put a face on who contributes to thejuiceblog site. Here is the link. http://www.myspace.com/insidescott

Please Help Me Get Tom off my front page!

Also, if you would have an interest in helping me build a new website for my comedy career, please contact me at scott@scottlongonline.com
I'm not looking to do anything elaborate, just general info and some short audio cuts from my standup show. I will pay a fair amount, but this is not a get rich opportunity, as it will be more of a basic site.

I just added you (Key of D). I don't think the MySpace thing is ridiculous at all. So many people use it that you may as well establish a presence. In fact, it might actually serve you better if you set up a Band profile instead. That way, you can upload bits into their Flash player.

I couldn't agree more with you about myspace, I too thought it was ridiculous. In fact, I was a bit embarrassed to have a page. But, then I thought...what the hell. Being a musician, much like a comedian, you need all the promotion you can get. I guess what I'm trying to say is...I'll be your friend. http://www.myspace.com/chrisgramazio

You do know that Adam Felber, also a comic (NPR's "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me," among other things), has a website called Fanatical Apathy, right?

"Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me" should be renamed, "No, Really, I'm Funny!" As funny as a colonoscopy. Since when did snark = comedy?

It's complete hackery. Fill a room with smug boomers and make them guffaw at Bush jokes. Wow. That must be hard.
