Before I ever did stand up comedy I had only ever seen it 3 times. I didn't really know what it was, I just lived my life, put myself in interesting situations and then took those stories to the stage. I never thought anything of it, I loved making people laugh in real life and it worked on stage. So when I got a Wrong Number twelve years ago I never thought it would turn into my stand up special, "SOUNDS LIKE BRUCE." I made this special because I like making people laugh, enjoy.
