Rising from the streets of New York’s ghettos to television superstardom, Jimmie “JJ” Walker personifies the great American success story. His catch phrase “Dyn-o-mite!” is part of the modern vernacular, and he became such a major celebrity in the 1970′s that Time Magazine named him “Comedian of the Decade.  He’s headlined top comedy clubs across the country, including the World Famous Comedy Store in LA.  Most famously known for his character in ”Good Times,” Jimmie has landed other choice roles in films like “Airplane!” and “Airport ’79“, and was a regular on television shows like “The Love Boat” and “Fantasy Island“.  In recent years he’s made scene-stealing appearances on “The George Lopez Show“, “Everybody Hates Chris” with Chris Rock, and “Scrubs“.  Don’t Miss your chance to catch him live only at Comedy Cabana. 

Also Appearing:  Todd Link & Cooter Douglas

 

After more than 20 years in the business, the “Limey” averages a laugh every eleven seconds in the first ten minutes of his 50-minute show. Not many comedians can boast figures like that.  Angrave appears regularly in Las Vegas and Atlantic City and headlines comedy clubs on both sides of the Atlantic as well as Canada and the Caribbean. He “pops up” as a bogus speaker at corporate events throughout the continental US – having entertained such clients as Delta Airlines, Hardee’s, Alamo Rent-a-Car, and Subway. He is a regular on the nationally syndicated radio show,John Boy & Billy“. Miller Lite sponsors him for appearances at US military bases on the “Comics on Duty” tour. The USO sends him all over the world to entertain the troops. He has been seen dozens of times on national TV In the US and Canada. Angrave pokes fun at American food, American holidays, and, most notably, the way Americans speak. If you ask him, he’ll say, “We invented English and you screwed it up!”

Eddie’s humor blends personal experiences and everyday life ranging anywhere from  NASCAR’s first “black” superstar, moving from the projects to a middle class neighborhood, setting up a speed trap, acid reflux or why you can’t win an argument with a woman.  His quick wit and funny stories, combined with his masterful characters, are a hit with audiences all over.   Eddie celebrated his first 23 years as a Stand-up comedian with the release of his 1st comedy cd, One Take , which was released on May 1, 2002. Eddie has since followed up with his first DVD, “There’s Mustard On This Hotdog!” which was released in “2005.″ Eddie’s stand up has made him a favorite on morning radio shows around the country and has opened opportunities in the film industry as well.  He has also been seen nationally on C.M.T. and ESPN 2’s “Cold Pizza.”  He had the honor of hosting an online show at the U.S. Tennis Open for the U.S.T.A. and America Online.  When describing Eddie’s style of entertainment one can only come to this conclusion: its just Eddie being… Eddie!

  Comedian Vinnie Mark’s best trick is to change traditional magic into non-stop laughs before your very eyes.  Mark delivers joke after joke, gag after gag, and leaves audiences on their feet with a real, live straightjacket escape.  Las Vegas slick and Sunday school proper, alchemist Mark transforms audience participation, one-liners and a few surprises into pure platinum.Mark’s television appearances include The Rosie ‘O Donnell Show (NBC), Late Night with David Letterman (NBC), Stand-up Spotlight (VH1) and Fox T.V.’s Comic Strip Live (Fox).  He can also be seen in the film Grown Ups (Adam Sandler).
Mark has “opened” for comedians Rodney Dangerfield, Gilbert Gottfried and David Spade as well as the musical group Crosby, Stills & Nash.  He has also toured with country singer Randy Travis.  In addition, the USO enlisted Vinnie to entertain troops in Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.He is an original member of the “Laughter Company,” an improvisation group that included Rosie ‘O Donnell and Bob Nelson.

 Whether he’s singing about a NASCAR driver’s sexual orientation or doing commercials for Big O Tires, Tim Wilson can’t be mistaken for someone else. The Georgia native’s distinctive baritone twang has an edge of roughness — like most of his comedy material. Wilson’s comic commentary covers subjects such as blind dates, cell phones and annoying relatives. Topics such as sex, politics and religion are not only addressed, they are dissected with a meticulous eye for detail and a somewhat-skewed worldview. Along with being a longtime regular guest on nationally syndicated radio programs such as “The Bob & Tom Show” and “John Boy & Billy,” Wilson also has some impressive TV credits, including appearances on “The Tonight Show With Jay Leno,” “Evening at the Improv” and “Grace Under Fire.”

  Big Ed started appearing with high profile acts including, Tommy Davidson, Tommy Chong, Brett Butler, Bobcat Goldthwait, Bobby Collins, Killer Beaz, Tim Wilson, Pauly Shore, and the lists go on.  Caylor is southern to the bone, and as country as cornbread.  He gives a hilariuos look at small town life, from childhood to parent hood. Big Ed is HIGH VOLTAGE on stage and red lines the energy gauge!  His homegrown humor will keep you laughing for weeks to come. Being from Ooltewah, Tennessee makes him an expert on hometown views and values. His true stories about marriage and being a dad will make you scream. Big Ed is funny till it hurts as every inch of him comes to life on stage in an animated twisted way. Family secrets and skeletons have entertained crowds for years. Big Ed puts on a BIG show that you won’t soon forget. He is outrageous, original and off the chart.
