He knew the audience.

Mike James did a 35min set for our 85 seniors at our monthly luncheon. Our theme was " Laughter is the best medicine". Mike was able to sit with our local 8yr old warm up act. His set was relatable for our clients. As the lead for our monthly luncheons, gigsalad is perfect solution for me to access our entertainment.

We're big fans of this guy

I'm the pastor at Circle of Peace, a small Christian church in the northwest valley. We've had Mike and his crew come to Circle more than once, and for good reason: They're great. Funny, fun, respectful, energetic.

The FUNNIEST and most PROFESSIONAL comedian around!!!

I have booked Mike James many times over the past 5 years for small private parties and large corporate events. He is prompt in his arrival to each venue. He dresses, acts and delivers a great show no matter how small or large the crowd. If it's comedy you're looking for I highly recommend Mike James for your event.

Wonderful!

Mike James performed at our corporate holiday party and we loved him! His comedy is very relatable, with topics ranging from his wife to awkward encounters in the airport. I think my husband related a little TOO well to some of the wife jokes! :) We loved Mike and highly recommend him!
