Drake Nelson comes from a family of performers. His family on his mother's
side was a touring musical group in the 1960's and 1970's, performing all
over the country, while maintaining a healthy dose of drugs and alcohol in
their systems. In Drake's twenties, he chased a dream of entering the world
of professional wrestling, and when a career-ending injury took that away,
he went back to college, receiving a degree in TV production. After
producing wrestling television all over the west coast, he decided to walk
away from that, and pursue another goal, stand up comedy. A product of the
1980's, Drake would watch and soak in comedy where ever he could, from the
HBO specials starring George Carlin and Sam Kinision to the 30 minute
specials seen all over cable in the 1990's.

He has a wide variety of style in his comedy, from self-deprecating humor
to observational, back to sex and long, funny stories, drawn from life
experiences.

Bob AKA Owner

As a kid, I always liked comedy and would listen to albums by George Carlin, Bob Newhart, Bill Cosby, and Lenny Bruce. Despite my enjoyment of these great talents, I decided to pursue an unfunny career and left Los Angeles for San Francisco State College to be a lawyer. When that did not hold my attention, I switched majors and ended up getting a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Communications.
