NEW STANDUP ALBUM: Some people just want audio. So the album version of This Will Make an Excellent Horcrux will be available on Tuesday on , for example, for $9.99. The $5 downloadable video of that material is still available from All Things Comedy at Here’s the thing: the DVD is from the Friday show and the album is from the Saturday show. Much of the material is the same but the jokes are told a bit different because I am not a machine. If you’re some kind of completist you can spend less than $15 for both digital copies and compare and contrast those sets. Live it up. If you are a hard copy kind of person you can get the DVD of Horcrux from my website, which has ONE bonus thing on it. You can also get a hard copy of the CD. Which is just the same as the digital but three dimensional. All of these choices sold make it easier for people who don’t have $20. OR you can listen for free on XM or Pandora or Spotify though I’m uncertain how that all works. DONATE folks...
