Jim Holder at Howl at the Moons' Comedy Zone June 6, 2010

Jim Holder is an 18-year veteran of stand-up comedy who has headlined comedy clubs from coast-to-coast. Jim started his career at The Comedy Workshop in Houston, Texas, home of the "Texas Outlaw Comics" such as Sam Kinison and Bill Hicks.

“Bill Hicks was the first non-famous comic I ever saw live and it changed the way I thought about comedy forever! The Outlaw Comics didn’t look like comedians I saw on TV. These guys owned the stage like rock stars! You never knew what was going to happen next!"
From those early influences, Jim developed the passion for stand-up comedy that he carries today. With an attitude aimed at making people laugh uncontrollably, Jim strikes incredibly close to home with his cynical descriptions of everyday subjects. His comedy is sometimes silly and hard-hitting, often spontaneous and interactive, but always funny. The question Jim receives most often after his show is "When are you coming Back”

The feature comedian is Mikey Mason

AtlaBorn in Kentucky and dragged throughout the south before settling in Indiana to be
raised in a trailer, Mikey Mason has a diverse background to draw material from. With
his abnormal childhood, five siblings, two marriages, two children, multiple pets,
college experiences, and many career changes (ranging from fast food, to working at
a funeral home, to teaching middle school, high school and college, as well as working
with at-risk youth,) he’s got a lot to talk—and sing—about.

Mikey went from performing in bands and sketch and improv comedy troupes to performing
standup over the last 15 years. He’s performed at Crackers, the Comedy Caravan, Wiley’s
Comedy Niteclub, Snickerz Comedy Bar, Mason City Limits, Go Bananas, and One Liners, as
well as many bars, clubs, fraternities, and private parties in and around the Midwest. He’s
performed with Todd Yohn, John Fox, Rob Haney, Lord Carrett, Steve Iott, Troy Davis, Chris
Speyrer, Tracey Tedesco, and Tim Rowlands, among others, and has made multiple regional
television and radio appearances. With a strong stage presence, infectiously hilarious songs,
and a wit almost as fast as his mouth, Mikey is an unforgettable performer.

Mikey draws the audience in with his saucy, irreverent blend
of storytelling and outrageous songs. No subject or musical
style is off limits. From country to rock, pop to rap, religion to
relationships, politics to childhood insecurities, Mikey is
unabashed, unafraid, and unquestionably funny.
