Comedy on the Coast is set for
Aug. 29-31 at Chinook Winds Casino.
These three nights of fun feature a trio
of comedians - Tim Haldeman,
Kenny Bob Davis, and Michael Pace
- all in return engagements.
Kenny Bob Davis is a veteran
comedian and singer who plays guitar.
He’s also a seasoned actor, comedy writer,
and improvisation specialist who loves to
golf, ridesmotorcycles, and do cartoon
voices. He’s appeared in movies and on
television in Mad TV, Murder She Wrote,
and The Comedy Shop.
Davis has been described as “a very
hip countrified George Carlin.” He’s
from Burbank, Calif., but most people
think he s from Texas. Because he
incorporates music with his comedy, it’s
hard to tell if he’s a singing comedian
or a comic singer. He’s opened for such
performers as Kenny Rogers, Larry
Gatlin, Vince Gill, and Willie Nelson.
He’s a regular in Las Vegas and Lake
Tahoe, and does many corporate events.
Whether you know it or not, you’ve
probably seen Tim Haldeman. Among
his credits are his engagements at the
original Improvisation in Hollywood
and its satellite clubs nationwide.
You’ve seen him on A&E’s Evening at
the Improv, and Showtime’s Comedy
Club Network. He’s also shared the
stage with B.B. King, Natalie Cole, and
Simply Red.
A pliable face sets Haldeman apart
from the crowd. His facial expressions
are to punch lines what Silly Putty is to
comic strips. An audience can’t miss his
point when he starts rolling his eyes.
Michael Pace has appeared in more
than 100 television shows and movies,
including The West Wing, Malcolm in the
Middle, ER, Once and Again, The Drew
Carey Show, Sabrina The Teenage
Witch, and Third Rock From The Sun.
Pace has developed a stand-up
routine that he’s performed across the
country, including sold-out shows in Las
Vegas and Atlantic City.
Four shows are scheduled: 9 p.m.
on Aug. 29 and Aug. 31, and 7 p.m. and
9:30 p.m. on Aug. 30. A no-host bar
will be available. Tickets, priced at $ 12,
are available at the box office.
