Uncle Yo is superior

>>2676753
God does this dude even tell jokes? He just stutters and rambles, absolutely no sense of comedic timing.

Fuck...this dude is so awkward.

East Coast Con Comedians should battle it out against the West Coast Con Comedian crew one day. There's always east/west rivalry in everything so why not nerd stand up?

>>2677182
>>2676753
so tell me why does this guy have his own panel? You'd think that with the poor feedback the audience gave him, the con would give his slot up to another person

>>2676879
Ug I can't believe other cons let him perform then again I've seen worse at panels and this guy at least has a game plan.

This guy is such an annoying little prick. He walks up to me and my friends in costume, stutters "Oh, you look kind of like you're cosplaying--but you're not" and just turns and walks away. What the fuck?

He also deletes every negative comment on his Youtube account. He has a second account that he replies to his Cosplay Comedian Joe handle on. He also makes up Q&A for himself to answer. It's horrible.

Probably the worst thing are his unfunny jokes about world events like the plane crashes, Haiti, etc. Like the week after. Too soon... and they just aren't funny.

He pretends to be friends with Uncle Yo to try and get panels. Karl is such a nice guy that he tries to help get him started, but I SAW him discreetly walk out of Joe's panel at Tekko 2009 (which was dreadful. It's hard to even lol at the fail.) Joe seems unaware of this because he keeps bragging about how he and Yo are buddies and Yo watched his performance blah blah blah let me crawl up his butt more.

He keeps posting on their forums about how he wants to be a guest-not panelist, a GUEST-because he can't afford to travel. Yet he lives in State college...

Most of the time you can see this kid wandering around looking like he's talking to himself, he's "rehearsing." Creepy.

>>2677225
East Coast has Uncle Yo and this guy which means that all they have is Uncle Yo (real funny dude) but does the West Coast even have con comedians?

This is bad and you should feel bad

>>2677881

Yeah, he stood up at the Tekko feedback panel and said something to the effect of "I should be invited as a guest next year with Uncle Yo"..... There He's always bugging Karl, Ranting Cid and anyone else who does the standup and improv shit.

At Tekko 6 he apparently kept throwing up in the garbage can backstage he was so nervous but after that one horrible performance (his first) he started calling himself a standup comedian. The only good part of his skit that year was Cid making faces on the sideline and joking about it when it was done. It was painful, and he's gotten NO better.

He attends Setsucon obviously, pic related, and man was he creepy as fuck there too. Totally full of himself as well.

Word's gotten around to many of the cons around here though, and when he *is* given panel space, it's done at terrible times, like early in the morning on Sunday. A friend of mine has to attend them every time he can though, loves the train wreck.

Joe's become a running joke in my friend circle. One friend actively trolls his youtube accounts. When he started talking about how he's BFF's with Karl, Karl actually told Joe to stop making it look like he's endorsing him since this guy can't take a hint.

.....is..this the guy that tried doing standup in Otakon's cosplay a few years ago?

If so, then yeah he sucked. Horribly.

This is painful.

>>2677881
>>2678144
I have no problem with a comedian being unfunny, just as long as they're aware of it and make efforts to improve himself. Joe on the other hand keeps insisting he is a comedian but is completely devoid of any stage presence and would only be able to get a huge laugh is if somebody from the audience ran up and kicked him in the balls while he performed.

>>2678144
I've seen this guy around. Thought he was like 16 and mentally retarded.

Wow he's super ugly

>>2679355
your mom

>>2678144
>A friend of mine has to attend them every time he can though, loves the train wreck

it's so true....i couldn't help but watch eventhough i knew in my head it was just aweful

>>2680389

Check out his "highlight" reel.

i remember in 09 watching this assclown futz around trying to not get burned by utter failure. Some old dude in the audience yelled "Don't let 'em see you sweat KID" and that threw Joe on his ass. I kinda wish he vomited right then and there, then at least something funny would have happened.

There's probably more people posting in this thread then who actually go to his panels to watch his shows

>>2681165
HE HAS A SCRIPT! DUDE IS PERFORMING WITH A SCRIPT?!

>>2677225
East coast vs west coast comedians don't need to fight it out. Nice concept but it would be almost impossible to organize.

>>2682569
Lots of comedians work off a script .
A great deal do not for that matter write the
material they preform sounter to what you thought.

>>2677225
>East Coast Con Comedians should battle it out against the West Coast Con Comedian crew one day. There's always east/west rivalry in everything so why not nerd stand up?
Whoever wins, we all lose.

>>2682682
I find that hard to believe but if I'm wrong say so. Look at all the great comedians out there like Bill Cosby and Chris Rock. Every time you watch a big prime time comedy special the comedian involved is never performing with a script in hand. Sure they've wrote it down somewhere before but they never take their stuff on stage.

>>2681808
>>2682682
sure smells like self-defense in here.

>>2677881
:| hate fuckers like this who think they're 'guest' worthy.

>>2682686
Otakus trying to be funny in masquerades is bad enough, seeing them attempt stand-up comedy sounds like a disaster like Cosplay "Comedian" Joe has shown us.

how about those pokemon cosplayers? i mean, they walk around in their pikachu and their pokemon like it's 1998. what's next, seinfeld cosplay?

but seriously, folks. have you ever noticed how many cosplayers there are at anime cons? I mean come on. What is this, a cosplay convention?

>>2683010
>>2683029
Funnier than the entire West Coast Last Comic Standing crew...though I still think Uncle Yo is worth a look

>>2677895

The talent in the west coast is by leagues and volumes way superior than the east.

Hell, even I'm funnier and I don't compete.

>>2683083
East coast seems to be more friendly when it comes to styles. Then again all I've seen is Uncle Yo. Watch last comic standing vids from 2009 shows a more confrontational style where the comics have a tad bit more attitude.

>>2683436

The audience is encouraged to boo the fuckers off stage if they suck.

That's called quality control to guarantee a good show. Even if the guy sucks, you'll have fun yelling him off stage. Either way, the audience wins.

>>2683453
>>2683436

It's just that with me I really think Uncle Yo can take on the entire west coast. His style is just really polished and he doesn't have to resort to being overly nasty to get humor. His persona makes him seem to be a down-to-earth funny guy while I view the Last Comic Standing group as moreso like savage bunch more concerned with telling dirty jokes to get cheap laughs

>>2683453
The audience's throats must be all sore after booing every contestant.

>>2683971
second

>>2683971
>>2684029
Least the audience is enjoying themselves. Moreso than I can say about cosplay comedian joe.

>>2683029

And how 'bout them neckbeards? I mean, could they smell any worse? SOAP, SOAP. WHAT IS SOAP.

>>2683960

>Suggesting all of the west coast gets nasty
>Has never seen G perform

lol. G would wipe the floor with you.

>>2681165
He chose those...himself...?
Dear jesus. There are really people like that out there.

I'd like to believe that there's some hidden brilliance behind 'Joe' (like as in 'an average Joe'), but seeing he's using cosplay as some sorta niche to his act he is just down right depressing..

>>2681165
He sounds like that one guy that does video game reviews. I actually turned the video on to see what it was about, and within a minute, closed the window.

>>2682682
There are "bits" that they use, but it's rarely ever a "script". And the fact that you have to reference your script as part of your act, GTFO. I'm a performer (not a comic, but the same idea holds) and I'd be KILLED if I brought a script up with me on stage during PERFORMANCE time.

In fact, I want to see this kid enter Last Comic Standing at AX. Just so he can get bodied.

>>2684956
How the hell would he "wipe the floor" with me if he doesn't get nasty as you implied.

>>2685221
I wish there was more chances for West Coast con comedians to perform. Uncle Yo gets invited to cons for entertain their guests and has panels on a constant basis. I can't say the same for the West Coast but then again the con circuits here are on a different wavelength.

>>2685445
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9s9PEuxRdmo

Yeah bro I really don't see this guy wiping the floor with anyone.

>>2685445

Lolololol

You've taken the bait, the selfpost is obvious from a mile away, Mr Joe guy. :>>>>

G doesn't use excessive crude humor at all. He won by being the most anime-themed least crude guy, which is a shock considering whom he had to beat and how much the crowd liked everyone else as well.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AByhA1wDEqc (video related)

Tell you what, you come to AX and try Last Comic Standing. A few of these people actually work on their material YEAR ROUND and perfect it just to get a few minutes on stage at an anime convention.

You sound like you just woke up and decided to be a comedian. Some people work hard for their comedy routines and are amateur comedians outside of cons as well. Their hard work I hope will pay off in the future. You however seem to have no talent and gloat the fact that someone took pity on you enough to let you borrow a microphone and an empty room for a few minutes.

And so, I invite you. Please come, because quite frankly your highlight reel demonstrates how much ass you suck at making people laugh. You might as well ask what the deal is with airline food, and why the lines at the ATM machines are so long, and what's with Yaoi fangirls these days.

>>2682569

Hey, if there's enough people from the East Coast, I could have something organized into LCS this year.

I intend to surpass the Masquerade in attendance numbers anyway, I might as well put a new spin on the show on top of everything else.

>>2685526

Alright, that was rad. The bait and the reply. Well fuckin done, man.

>>2685526
Wow, well played Masa!
