My cousin Jeff Swinford showed us a video of stand up comedian Brian Regan in the mid 90s. 15 years later and Brian Regan is still doing stand up comedy. There are a few reasons to check out Brian’s videos (he has three stand up performance DVDs and one stand up CD available here):
1) He is an incredibly accomplished stand up comedian. he uses facial expressions and body language in a lot of his comedy.
2) His delivery is superb. When Brian Regan appeared at comedy clubs in the Chicagoland area, my wife and I would typically see him two times. Although some of his material is the same, he always had enough material to make each performance unique.
3) He doesn’t swear. Unlike many comedians that make appearances on late night talk shows, Brian’s in person performances are very similar to his late night sets (just more material and hilarious encores). My kids have been listening to Brian Regan for years and our 12 year old has gone to see him in person once already.
I could (and many times do) go on, but it’s really best to watch this professional in his element. His website is www.brianregan.com and his youtube channel is www.youtube.com/brianregancomic. If you would like to see him in person, there are a number of local appearances coming up in October (you will probably see me at a couple of them!) http://www.brianregan.com/tour.html
