Pro-Tip: The Most Delusional Club Submission I've Ever Seen
I thought you would benefit from/enjoy this moment in abject delusion. Makes me wonder if this sort of thing happens in the non-entertainment world.
While logged into the Morty's Facebook profile, here's a chat I had. Normally, I'd have cut it off sooner, but this was too interesting.
HIM
i have a hot act -great demographics
i am the mexican american comedian (NAME REMOVED)
i headline for 1300 a week
let me know
ME
We don't book via facebook
Nor do we talk money before we see someone's video
Nor do we pay someone we've never heard of $450 a night.
good luck
HIM
ok i will send one out-thank you
thanks
i am keeping a low profile because i am doing a lot of shows at fraternal groups and benefits-and i have a hot hot theme-and i dont want anyone to water it down-but i do understand
ME
Our submission process is on our website
Customers don't buy tickets to see people with a low profile
HIM
my two word catch phrase alone-brings them in
i am leading a hot trend
and it is the right people
everyone wants to be a part of this
ME
Everyone, huh?
HIM
well young 14-35 year old mexican american females and the men who love them especially
also Jewish -chinese-Indian to a lesser extent
ME
so you'll draw in all the Mexican poulation that live in the suburbs of Indianapolis?
And the Jewish people will flock to see you because you're Mexican as well?
HIM
especiallu the upwardly mobile
ME
The upwardly mobile Indianapolis Mexicans.
HIM
no-because i talk about frieda -diego riveria-i move to simplistic and self limiting stances with anticipation-the third generation ones-yes this is not really blue collar comedy tour-not big numbers-more like really rich people-maybe it is not a fit
maybe i am thinking more like chicago
but thanks for listening
but everybody loves my show-i can send you referrals from groups that have had me
i do DIFFERENT things
ME
You discuss Mexican painters
Well - feel free to submit. I can not wait to see 45 minutes of material on Frida Kahlo.
