https://www.amazon.com/Touring-Legends-comics-opening-Dangerfield/dp/1629336726
"Touring with Legends: A comic's tale of opening for Rodney Dangerfield, Joan Rivers, George Carlin, Tom Jones and many more..." by Dennis Blair recounts in detail many of the not-seen-by-the-public "backstage" stories; the funny, the triumphant, the tragic, the weird, the close encounters, the nightmare gigs, the friendships forged, the good times and the bad times that Dennis experienced as a co-worker and a friend to many of the biggest names in show business during those years.
It is also a testament to how you can never really plan how things will turn out.
Critique: A very special 'insider's biography that will hold particular and special value for readers with an interest in the history and experience of being a professional stand-up comedian and opening act for some of the truly legendary comedians and musicians, "Touring with Legends: A comic's tale of opening for Rodney Dangerfield, Joan Rivers, George Carlin, Tom Jones and many more..." was originally published in hardcover by BearManor Media (2021). Now released in a trade paperback edition, it continues to be a singularly unique and highly recommended picks for personal, professional, community, and college/university library 'showbusiness' biography/memoir collections.
