One of only 10 comedians to ever sell out Madison Square Garden, he's a New York Times bestseller and a Grammy nominee, as well as a father of five (phew).

Corey Holcomb at Detroit Opera House

Corey Holcomb

Chicago's Corey Holcomb performed his first open mic back in 1992, and he hasn't looked back since.

Jo Koy at Masonic Temple Theatre

Jo Koy

One of the most popular comics on today's circuit, it's rather hard to imagine Koy starting off in a humble Las Vegas coffee shop way back in 1994.
