Artist description
If you ever find yourself taking a long car trip Danny Friedman is the kind of guy you'd want for a relief driver. Without being loud or obnoxious or full of himself he would definitely keep you entertained ,as the twists and turns in the wanderings and wonderings of his mind parallel the twists and turns of an unfamiliar rural blacktop. After a few hours you would begin to realize that his ideas are the playthings of a mind that dances leprechaun-like around the bonfire of his unique perspective. And when the trip is finally over and you get out of the car, stretch your legs and take a deep lungful of unfamiliar air, you would be aware that you'd just taken a trip not only through space, but a journey through the realm of the "whys", the "what-ifs" and the just plain "weird", leaving you like a visitor to your own world, seeing the ordinary in a whole new way, with the realization that this is indeed a very funny universe!

Press Reviews
After Seven years of college, six different majors, 235 credit hours, Dan Packed it and hit the road doing what he knew he did best--make people laugh.
It was in 1991 when he got his first break as the house MC for Ray Combs Cincinnati Comedy Connection. Since then the 30 year old Cincinnati native has worked selectively around his home state. He has taken his comedy to club stages in Cleveland, Buffalo, Columbus, as well as colleges like Penn State and Iowa University.
Dan gives his audience a high energy show with a laid back flavor. With minimal blue material, he covers such topics as growing up an only child, sports, Judaism, college, sex, drugs,and politics.
"When asked what being an only child was like, Mr. Friedman said tag was a problem.
"I've been it for 30 years.""
Such quips are indicative of a style intended to make people laugh, and when he discusses current issues, to make them think."
"He has a storytelling style in which he uses his face body and voice as part of his delivery....Beyond ethnic jabs and poking fun at his upbringing, he brings his audience to a common place where the everyday is hilarious."
