Brad Upton in a past winner of the Las Vegas Comedy Festival and appeared recently at Caesar's Palace as part of the HBO Comedy Festival. Twenty-six years and 5000 shows have made this Seattle based comic a much sought after performer and earned the respect of his peers.

Writing about everyday life, a long term marriage and anything else that pops into his head, Brad packs more laughs-per-minute into his set than nearly anyone in the business. He has been seen in concert with Johnny Mathis, Kenny Rogers, The Smothers Brothers, Lewis Black, Joan Rivers, Dolly Parton, Rita Rudner and Tim Allen. He is currently touring theaters and performing arts centers with The Masters of Stand Up, a group that includes comedy stars: Jimmy Brogan, Cathy Ladman and Maryellen Hooper. His new CD entitled, "Smart Guy, Stupid World" is heard regularly on XM and Sirius Satellite Radio and is available on iTunes.

His ease and likeability on stage have made him very popular with corporate clients and the cruise ship industry where he is a headline performer for several of the major cruise lines. Brad has headlined nearly every comedy club from Anchorage to Miami but his club appearances are becoming increasingly rare because of his busy schedule. Brad has made numerous television appearances and was heard around the nation for several years as a regular guest on National Public Radio's "REWIND" program. Brad and his wife of 24-years have a 18-year old son and 15-year old daughter....they live in a cul-de-sac.

John Hilder is an up and coming comedian who is quickly making a name for himself as one of the funniest and hardest working young comics in America.

John was born and raised in the comedic hotbed of Salt Lake City, Utah. As a child growing up VERY Mormon, John spent most of his time annoying friends, family, and teachers with his endless attempts at making those around him laugh. Through the years his love of connecting with, and entertaining people through comedy only grew, but sadly his love of being a Mormon in Utah did not, so in 2004 John left Utah and the Mormon Church for the neon pastures of lovely Las Vegas, Nevada to pursue a life of comedy and sin.

With his quirky personality, unparalleled originality and fearless attitude on stage, John quickly rose above the fray to become one of the most respected local comedians in the city. By seamlessly combining his goofy persona with a cynical edge, John has become a favorite in some of the biggest casinos in Las Vegas, including the Palms, the Rio, Planet Hollywood, and the Mandalay Bay.

In the years since his move to Las Vegas John has toured comedy clubs, colleges, bars, theatres, casinos, sock hops, and any other venue or event he could find with a microphone and a semi-attentive audience. He was also a writer and featured member of the Las Vegas Laughs Street Team on the Fox television affiliate in Las Vegas. In January 2010 John moved back to his hometown of Salt Lake City and released his debut comedy album entitled “Johnsense,” which is currently available on iTunes and Amazon. Needless to say, it is taking the country by sarcastic storm. John has been featured in magazines and newspapers all over the United States, and in 2011 he was named one of the top 3 comedians in Utah by the Salt Lake City Weekly.

Don’t miss the opportunity to see this quick-witted, hilarious young comic on his way up, years before his imminent, and heartbreaking demise.
