About Me

Hey there! Andy Martello here, welcoming you to the
Tales from Andy Land Blog.

For those of you not familiar with me or my work, I am a
professional entertainer, freelance humor writer, and full-time smart-ass living in Las Vegas, NV. I moved here from Chicago after a freak storm destroyed my home. Seriously.

I perform stand-up comedy, juggling, fire-eating, plate-spinning, and I even work as characters for theme parties (A gangster for a speakeasy night, a Blues Brother for a blues night, and so on.).


My act has been seen on
"Last Comic Standing", "The Bozo Show", and "Wild Chicago". My comedy sketches have been heard on The Doctor Demento Show and my columns have appeared in several online magazines, including The Cheers, Absolute Write, Malicious Bitch, & the Riverwalk Journal.

I even appeared in a political advertisement that ran nationally on CNN & Fox News, and was discussed in the New York Times.

In case you came here from http://andymartello.com this will be considerably different from my main website. Most notably, I swear a lot more here. I talk about WHATEVER THE HELL I WANT, from cigars & martinis to naked women & penguins. Sometimes I talk about naked penguins, but let's not get into that now.

I view this as my
"after-hours-hole-in-the-wall" hangout and I get to be less corporate, and more sarcastic. If you want the squeaky-clean Andy Martello, head back to my main website and everyone will be happy.

I use this blog to promote my writing & performing projects, try out comedy bits, spout out opinions, work out the bugs in upcoming columns, and meet new people. It is my sincerest hope you'll take the time to look around and enjoy yourself.

Read. Comment. Enjoy!

    Ten Things Tuesday

    Ten Things Tuesday Lists

    Ten Things Tuesday is a regular feature I started to
    A) Give me a reason to write a new comedy piece once a week
    B) Entertain you
    C) Remove one of the seven days a week where I wonder what to post.

    Initially it started with a post I wrote titled, "Things You'll Never Hear Dr. Phil Say". This post was well received and seemed to strike a chord with the readers. It happened to have ten things in the list & I decided to try and write a new list once a week. It's that simple.

    This is not a "Top Ten List", as they are not ranked in any way. It is also not a MEME. I don't give a damn if you plan on writing your own and I'm not setting up any code for you to embed into your blog. If you want to link the current list from your blog go right ahead. I need the readers.

    The most recent post is at the bottom of this list. Enjoy.
