About this episode

In 1982 I watched a comedy special DVD titled "Live on the Sunset Strip" starring Richard Pryor. I loved this comedy special and watched it over and over again. I loved the way the stage looked, and the crowd watching Richard Pryor. I saw that it was filmed at the Hollywood Palladium, in Hollywood Ca. I said to myself, "I'm going to perform at the Hollywood Palladium."  I had no reason to believe that ever could happen. A short sixteen years later, I was performing on stage at the Hollywood Palladium, for my own comedy special. Paramount pictures was doing the re-release of Grease on it's anniversary. They paid me $9,000 to change the date of my show, so they could have theirs on the movies anniversary. I encourage you to follow your dreams, you never know what might happen.
