Joe List

"I started doing comedy in 2000 in Boston, Massachusetts. It was really fun. I did a lot of shows and drank a lot of beers. In 2006 I started traveling around the country opening for Nick DiPaolo, that was really fun too, he's a real hoot. Then in April, 2007 I moved to New York City. That was really fun as well, it's an exciting place to live. In November of 2007 I performed at the HBO Comedy Festival in Las Vegas, that was the most fun ever. In early 2008 I was chosen to perform on the television program 'Live at Gotham' on Comedy Central, I haven't done that yet, but I'll bet it's gonna be really fun."
