   Bob Phillips's Comedian Bio
BioBob Phillips has been slinging jokes across the Midwest, and has opened for such national headliners as Frank Caliendo, Auggie Smith, Mike Green, Peter Berman, Greg Vaccarello, Bill Bushart, John DiResta, Derek Richards and many others. Drawing from today’s headlines, as well as his experience as an over-forty, single father, Bob weaves a web of insightful observations that are both funny and relevant. Bob is one of only a handful of conservative comics, and he is able to poke fun at the liberal mindset, without alienating liberal audience members. All in fun.Bob has performed at many comedy venues, including The Comedy Castle, Gary Fields, Chaplin’s, Joey’s, Wise Guys and many others. Working mostly clean, Bob can sling the dirt if need be. Audiences enjoy his friendly, "Come along with me" stage presence.

About me:

http://www.funnymanbob.com

"A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men"---Willy Wonka. I tell jokes at comedy clubs around the Midwest. I do it because I love it. If you ever hear a comic say they do comedy because they, "Just want to make the world a better place," it's bullshit. We do it because our egos need it. Strange thing about comics...big egos, but zero self worth.

Morning smiles
like the face
of a newborn child
innocent unknowing.

Winter's end
promises
of a long lost friend.
Speaks to me of comfort

but I fear
I have nothing to give.
I have so much
to lose here in this lonely place.
Tangled up in your embrace
there's there's nothing I'd like better than
to fall.

but I fear
I have nothing to give.

Wind in time
rapes the flower
trembling on the vine
and nothing yields to shelter
from above.
They say temptation will destroy our love.
The never ending hunger

but I fear
I have nothing to give
I have so much
to lose here in this lonely place
tangled up in our embrace
there's nothing I'd like better than
to fall

but I fear
I have nothing to give.
I have so much to lose.
I have nothing to give.
We have so much to lose...
