Comedy Night > Dwayne Gill, Denise Ramsden
Everyone has heard the old saying “Good Cop, Bad Cop? Well meet Funny Cop, Dwayne Gill.

As a professional stand-up comedian known for his engaging personality and stage presence, he can be depended on to serve up laughter wherever he appears. And when it comes to protecting, it’s not your funny bone he’s worried about - it’s the citizens of Michigan, since he’s also a cop!

Feeling his job requirements were a bit too serious for someone considered funny since birth; Dwayne found an outlet for his humor when he first stepped onto a comedy stage in 1993. To say he was well received would only serve to protect the audience from what really happened. They went crazy with laughter. After only two more performances, he joined the ranks of professional comedians with his first paid booking at Gadzooks Comedy Club. “Right then I knew comedy was what I was here on earth for,” he laughs. “And I’d much rather take laughter than a bullet any time.”

Denise Ramsden: Denise Ramsden is an innovative, original comedian, as she blends biting sarcasm and bold humor with personal experiences. Born and raised on the South side of Chicago, Denise loves to sarcastically pay tribute to her Irish Catholic upbringing. While a favorite among female audiences, her natural, honest sense of humor also greatly appeals to men, and no one is safe from the infectious laugh infused throughout her act. Denise discusses familiar topics and situations, which give her an accessible quality few comics share, but it is a combination that all audiences remember

She has gotten the chance to work with such comics as Jake Johannsen (her favorite), Kevin Pollak, and Artie Lange. After participating in year-long Survivor-like contest, Denise was voted Chicagoland’s Funniest New Talent at the Barrel of Laughs in January 2004. Plus, you can run into her vending/slinging Old Style and movie lines almost every game at Wrigley Field, just listen for her laugh.

Tjax Malek-I and the Ras Lion Sound(First Appearance)

TJAX MALEK-I SINGER, SONG WRITER, ARRANGER AND PRODUCER OF SOME OF THE MOST CRUCIAL REGGAE MUSIC IN THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE TODAY, WAS BORN IN MANCHESTER, JAMAICA IN A SMALL FARM VILLAGE KNOWN AS MEADSFIELD.

Music has been an integral part of Tjax Malek-I’s life. Growing up in Jamaica, Tjax remembers that music seeped out from every corner of his life, like juice from a sun ripened mango reggae flowed trough him, out of him and all around him. His childhood memories are of festivals and family gatherings all rich with the sweet sounds of the island. From a very early age, he remembers not only wanting to create music but live music. To the delight of those around him Tjax showed promising talent as he was able to perform songs after hearing them played just once. The island provided young Tjax with not only strong foundation for music but also allowed it to enter his soul and that can only happen if you are truly immersed in it.

THIS FRESH VIBRANT SOUND OF TJAX MALEK-I IS SURE TO ENDURE THE TEST OF TIME.

PINK FREUD

PINK FREUD is THE BEST PINK FLOYD TRIBUTE you'll ever hear, featuring four of the best rock musicians in the country. When you close your eyes, you will swear you are sitting in the best seats in the house, listening to Pink Floyd rock the way you remember them. When you open your eyes, you'll keep asking yourself the question "HOW THE HELL ARE THEY DOING THIS WITH JUST FOUR GUYS??" While other bands have gone the easy route and relied upon smoke and mirrors to "capture Pink Floyd", the truth is, they have neglected the most important aspects: the sound, the musicianship, and the soul of the music. But don't take our word for it, check out what these folks had to say....then come hear it for yourself!!!!!
