Vos is coming to perform in my home city. Is he doing comedy or a motivational seminar?!?

"Growing up on the wrong side of the tracks, Vos struggled to beat drug and alcohol addictions. He now celebrates his victories on stage with stories about kids, divorce, marriage and recovery."

EWWWWWWWW

I see the awful, terrible things in my life, and I turn it into something funny.

We were wrong Vos. You were right.

Haha, it's the wrong side of the tracks part that bothers me.

That is officially where I tapped out. I didn't even notice the "inundated with letters of thanks and gratitude for the good work he has done."

It's a shame he can't read them

It's almost like he wrote this specifically thinking "boy if the right people read this there is no way they won't make a movie about my life!"

"An old Jew's strange, erotic journey from Milan to Minsk...."

Voshhghhelle, Voshhghhelle

Rochelle! Come in, you'll catch cold!

ya know guysch im out there khillin' it every night, breakin down wallsch... i wrote for da oscarshhhh, ya know

It gets worse, from the ticket site:

Best known from "Opie & Anthony" and NBC's "Last Comic Standing, Rich Vos is one of the most exciting and broadest headlining comedians in the country. Back Stage Magazine says of Vos, He has an uncanny "Everyman" ability to likeably bond with anyone in the audience.

"How I learned to overcome mental retardation and become moderately successful"

This is clearly the work of Bonnie.

"...and performing shows for colleges, corporations, and charities."

that use of alliteration made me want to punch the monitor in anger.

i saw him and he killed. you should go if you're able.

Fuck off Vos....and learn to capitalize you fucking cunt.

They forgot to put air quotes around performer

They didn't touch on his magical acting skills.

I mean, he was the best Lenny Bruce I ever saw.

Louie Bft-bft-bft-Beans!

I hope you guys realize that Vos didn't write this. Comedians don't actually write these things. I just listened to Artie Lange and Norton talking about how ridiculous, corny, and stupid a lot of the publicists descriptions of their acts are, and how they cringe when they actually look at how their act has been described to sell tickets.

Of course. I'm sure his agent got right on it.

"Daddy needs you to type this!!"

I see he's playing in "Minniapolis" on January 16 and 17

Even though that sounds terrible, he's a great comic and have seen him a few times, definitely recommend it.

It's a shame he can't read them
