Default The Banana Man

If you've ever visited my YouTube page you may have noticed my video collection which I have used as sort of a visual notepad. I draw a lot of inspiration from these videos and though I wont ever steal their ideas directly they all have ideas that I would like to incorporate into my show at some point. One sticks out particularly as a video I think you should all see if you haven't. It's of the original vaudeville performer the Banana Man. Enjoy, I do!

Yeah, that act is fantasictic. (As is Pat Cashin's video collection, in general). Go bananas, go go bananas! (I'd have no, problem with pulling a few out of my pocket in an appropriate act as a tip of the hat to his legacy.)

Is that a banana in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
