Comedian in Charlotte, NC
Why hire Sid Davis?
Have your event buckle up to one of the nation's up and coming comics!
His smart/safe brand of comedy is relatable and perfect for event entertainment.
His show has been described by audience members and event planners from Key West to Canada as "bulletproof" and "Hilarious!"
"People at these events want to have fun and unwind," Sid said in a recent interview. "I don't preach politics or religion and stay away from overly blue subjects. I listen to the event planner's instructions and give they type of show they ask for."
Funniest guy I want to see again and again
Sid Davis used to be the second funniest guy in North Carolina and now he's the funniest guy I want to see again and again! Some guys are funny but you leave feeling now you've seen them and that's it. Sid continues to come up with new material that is hilarious and so effectively taps into real life experiences that we've either lived through and survived and willing to admit it or tell the world it was a "friend of mine" who did whatever... And then for good measure, Sid throws in things we've never thought about but can relate to completely, like Franklin on a bill. Reminds me of early George Carlin days. Like George, Sid is the real deal!!

Sid is the funniest comic I have seen in a long time.
Sid is the funniest guy I have seen in a long time. He talks about real things that happen in life that I can relate to. His timing is superb and he is fun to watch. He makes this face of Ben Franklin and he looks just like him. There is no doubt that we will go see Sid again and again.
Response from Sid Davis:
I remember this lady very well! She came to a show on a Friday night and not only came back the next night; she brought her dad and a couple of friends. What a compliment. Thank you!

Top off your event with one of America's funniest next door neighbor.

His knockout performance at the Ventura Comedy Festival earned him a spot on Sirius Comedy Radio's Headliner Showcase.

He headlined this year's Best in Fest Showcase at SLO, that was broadcasts on Sirius XM's comedy channels.
His show has been described by audience members and event planners from Key West to Canada as "bulletproof" and "Hilarious!"
BIO:
Sid's first job as a copywriter/ad salesman frustrated him. He walked aka quit. When arriving home to tell his new bride he was unemployed, she informed him that he was going to be a father. The dream of comedy performing was put on the back burner.... for 25 years.
Through the years of raising a family and transforming from an insurance agent to an airline mechanic, Sid yearned to flex his creative skills. He joined Toastmasters and quickly won North Carolina's statewide humorous speaking contests. Soon after he began frequenting the Comedy Zone and began touring shortly after.
Influences
Jack Benny, Johnny Carson, Steve Martin, Craig Ferguson, Foster Brooks, Brian Regan, Sandy Koufax, ...and many talented people you have not heard of.
What to Expect
Typical Gig Duration: 30 - 60 minutes
Sid Davis was called, "the Mark Twain" of our time by author Steven Kunes. Since he attending the THE TONIGHT SHOW staring JOHNNY CARSON in 1979, he knew entertaining was what he wanted to do in life.
His unique humor hones in on situation comedy that relates to the ironies of life. Adults laugh with him--Kids laugh at him. His comedy style is unique and ORIGINAL...and hilarious!
"I recall attending corporate events when I was a civilian" Sid expressed in a recent interview. "The comedians were telling jokes I had seen on the internet."
When an event planner puts their neck (and their checkbook) on the line to hire entertainment, they deserve a fresh and funny point of view!"
Sid works clean and is a professional; Period.
VERY IMPORTANT! Sid can provide (at no charge) his own audio and spotlight systems to create a perfect atmosphere for a comedy show in your venue.
Stage/Setup Requirements:
Audience MUST be done with meal (if any) before entertainment begins.
Additional Notes:
It is essential that my (or any show) not happen during dinner being served or consumed. The entertainer must be as close to the first row as possible. The room should be dark with exception of a spot on the entertainer. The sound system must be audible.
These are keys to a successful comedy show for you, me or any entertainer. Anything less is a train wreck.
