DANE COOK'S SHOW.
HIS FIRST SHOW
SINCE 2013.
IT IS TAKING PLACE TOMORROW AT
THE HALL.
IT IS VERY FORTUNATE TO CONTACT
HIM AND FACETIME HIM TO FIND OUT
MORE INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT THE
SHOW IS ALL ABOUT AND EVERYTHING
ABOUT THE COMEDY AND HIM BEING A
COMEDIAN.
CHECK OUT OUR CONVERSATION
EARLIER TODAY.
DANE: I'M COMING UP
ON 30 YEARS
DOING, DO.
I FEEL LIKE I JUST STARTED
RECENTLY.
IT IS KIND OF A TIME CANCEL
MOVEMENT -- TIME CAPSULE
MOVEMENT.
TO HAVE A NEW CHUNK OF MATERIAL
THAT HELPS WHERE I'M AT THIS
POINT IN MY LIFE, IS VERY
IMPORTANT TO SHARE THE MATERIAL.
ALSO, IT TOOK A LITTLE BIT
LONGER, BECAUSE WHEN YOU ARE
BEING INTROSPECTIVE AS A
PERFORMER, I THINK YOU WILL DO
DUE DILIGENCE AND FIND THOSE
MOMENTS FOR PEOPLE TO CONNECT
WITH.
WHAT WAS THE
DECISION TO THE
DESTINATION?
DANE: IT
-- FEELI A GUY BEING
CLICHE WHEN I SAY IT'S A MAGICAL
PLACE.
I WILL SHARE SOMETHING PERSONAL,
WHEN MY MOM PASSED AWAY, I WAS
IN HAWAII.
THE MORNING SHE HAD PASSED AWAY,
I WENT INTO THE OCEAN AND HAD A
CONVERSATION WITH MY MOM AS A
WAY TO SAY GOODBYE.
ALL THE LOVE AND SUPPORT SHE
BROUGHT INTO MY LIFE.
EVER SINCE THAT MOMENT, I ALWAYS
FELT CONNECTED TO MY MOTHER BACK
AT THE ISLANDS.
WHETHER I'M PERFORMING OR
SITTING ON A BEACH.
IT IS A BIT OF A FAMILY
ENVIRONMENT.
YOU'VE DONE SOME WORK IN
TERMS OF GUEST STARRING, BUT IS
THERE OTHER WORK YOU HAVE DONE
OVER THE PAST YEAR?
I HAVE NEVER HAD THE GOOD
FORTUNE TO FILM THERE
ON A
REGULAR BASIS, BUT I HAVE BEEN
WORKING ON NATURE OF FOR THE
LAST COUPLE OF YEARS WITH MY
WRITING PARTNER THAT WOULD BE A
COMEDY THAT CAN TAKE PLACE IN
HAWAII.
WITH A LITTLE BIT OF
LUCK, GIVE
ME SOME ALOHA SPIRITS, MAYBE I
CAN COME DOWN AND WE CAN BE
WORKING TOGETHER.
THERE'S A LOT OF
UP-AND-COMING PEOPLE,,
ESPECIALLY SOCIAL MEDIA
INFLUENCE, A LOT OF IT HAS TO DO
WITH COMEDY.
WHAT WOULD BE YOUR EXPERIENCE
FOR THEM?
I THINK THE BLESSING AND THE
CURSE OF THE IMMEDIACY OF SOCIAL
MEDIA IS YOU CAN FIND
AN AMAZING
SECTION OF FANS THAT CAN SHARE
YOUR CONTENT AND CONVERSE WITH.
THAT IS REMARKABLE.
THE PLACE WE CAUTION YOUNG
PERFORMERS IS ONCE YOU MAKE
IT,
FIND THOSE FANS, HAVE THAT
MOMENT WHERE EVERYBODY IS
FAMILIAR WITH YOU, THAT IS WHEN
YOU HAVE TO BE PREPARED FOR WHAT
IS NEXT.
THAT MEANS WHAT CONTENT HAVE I
WORKED ON?
HOW MUCH MATERIAL DO I HAVE?
HOW MUCH LIFE EXPERIENCE?
IS EASIER TO BECOME AN OVERNIGHT
SENSATION THAN IT IS TO BE OVER
A LIFETIME SENSATION.
I WOULD
SAY WORK YOUR HARDEST TO
HAVE A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF
WHAT YOUR ART AND CREATIVITY IS,
SO NOBODY CAN CHANGE YOU AND YOU
CAN FOLLOW THAT GOOD INSTINCT
HOPEFULLY TO THE FAR ENDS OF AN
OUTSTANDING CAREER.
