Check out Big Jay Oakerson hosting the Jagermeister Tour and the Mayhem Festival! He'll be doing some hilarious comedy bits between sets and making his way around the venues during the shows to interact with fans!Jay Oakerson began honing his storytelling style of stand-up comedy after a series of dead-end jobs, like driving around strippers and escorts in his hometown of Philadelphia. This won him the comedy portion of the Salem Orb-E Future Faces Competition and gave him the chance to perform at New York City's noted comedy club Carolines on Broadway.
Now a ten-year stand-up veteran, the 31-year-old New York City resident has made comedy his full-time job, flooring audiences with anecdotal bits about ultra-macho frat boys or being too fat for karate. Jay has performed at the Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal and is currently starring and writing consultant on the hit IFC show Z-Rock, where he received critical acclaim for his performance as "Neil", the sexually questionable owner of a NYC rock club. Jay has also appeared on Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn and Dave Attell's Insomniac Tour, and was a contributing writer for Chappelle's Show.
Keep an eye out for Big Jay Oakerson's half-hour special airing on Comedy Central and the release of Big Jay Oakerson: An American Storyteller available now on Comedy Central Records & iTunes.
