On this instalment of Vegas Book Club, we're taking a trip back to and my chat with Dennis Blair, author of the book, Touring With Legends.
A Las Vegas-based comedian & musician, Dennis's career has spanned almost 40 years and over that time, he's worked with some of the biggest names in comedy and music. He co-wrote a feature film, he's worked on numerous TV specials, and he's appeared on the Tonight Show several times.
Dennis and I talked about what got him into comedy, his early days working with the legendary Rodney Dangerfield & what led to their falling-out, his time on the road with the incomparable Joan Rivers, and what it was like spending 18 years as the opening act for the late great George Carlin.
