My Buddy Dan.

Last night Glen and I went to see Dan Piraro, cartoonist extraordinare, at the Wonder Ballroom. It was SO FUNNY! I absolutely love this man! The show started at 8:00 but he came out around 7:30 and just started talking and answering questions. Very informal, funny. As people would walk in, he'd tell them not to worry, the show hasn't actually started and they haven't missed a thing! It was a very funny running gag. Funny, political, vegan, animal rights activist...aahhh...my kinda guy! After the show, Glen and I bought his new book, Bizarro and Other Strange Manifestations of the Art of Dan Piraro. and met him. Nice guy. We met his wife, Ashley, too. Gorgeous! She is a full-time animal rights activist so that just made her even more beautiful! Seemed like easy-going people. It was just a fun fun evening! 

Being the conscientious blogger that I am, I, of course, asked if I could take a picture with him. Dan was extremely obliging.

Hope you have a fun day!

Hi, Michelle. Remember those cartoon strips that I did for the 21 day challenge. Most of those cartoons are from Dan Piraro??? Can you believe it. I'm glad you had a great time. Boy he looks young! That's a great pix of you guys! Luvs Malou

Sounds like you had fun. Wish I'd been there

I liked the idea of him walking and conversing with the crowd before the show started, I can imagine the people coming in...their thoughts, racing around them...Are we late!? Clever ice breaker!

Never heard of this gentleman. Am sure I would love him, as I love Larson and Calhoun. I like his shirt and hat, and I love that he is looking toward you in the picture instead of mugging for the camera. What a cool neat picture for you to have.
