Amazing show and tribute to our Veterans!

Longhorn did a great show for our fundraiser event, but it was so much more than just his comedy. Yes, he was funny and the audience loved his humor and jokes, but it was also his heart for our Veterans that captured our crowd. The event was a comedy night fundraiser to support Veterans Community Project-STL. I completely surprised him when I was given some home made baked goods to auction off, well Longhorn knew exactly what to do and helped auction off the items to raise even more money. We felt he did such a great job, we are having him again for our next event. Thank you Longhorn!

Surprise set was the best

I met Longhorn at a bar in Nashville. It was hosting a comedy open mic and we got to chatting at the bar. I asked if he was going up and he said no, he was just checking out some local talent. But at the end of the night he jumped up and 5 minutes and they were, by far, the best 5 minutes of the night. He encouraged all the other comedians, he made us all laugh and he brought an energy into the room that hadn't been there before. I would absolutely see him perform again if I had the chance.

What to expect

Hailed as one of the most unique acts in comedy. His act is billed as “The Longhorn Comedy Show,” is just as unique – a hilarious blend of jokes and observations from a “Country Boy’s” point of view. His material ranges from stuff about his kids, current events and past experiences. Longhorn offers a rousing night of entertainment performed with a Texas Flair.

Born Vernon E. Davis, II, in the small town of Heidenhaimer, Texas to a family of “crazy country people”, he quickly learned that the lessons of life are easier to learn if you add just a little humor. There is nothing “off-limits” to Longhorn’s comedic third eye. He takes the events of life as he sees them and then turns them around to show you how it appears to him and why it is funny. Seriously, nothing is sacred, he talks about kids, old people, midgets, past life experiences, current events, politics and whatever else he sees that needs to be humanized. True comedy is life as we all see it but it takes a comedian like Longhorn to turn it around and help you see the humor in it, there is something funny about everything, I do mean everything to include church (one of his favorite topics, his mother was an Evangelist).
