Comedian Rico Sita is a New York native who now lives in Florida (because no one has ever heard of that before?). Since he was told how funny he was one time at a party, he decided to try out the world of stand-up comedy. Then, the worst thing happened…he made the entire audience laugh and loved every minute of it. Much to his wide’s disappointment he pursued this new found dream.  Rico brings to the stage a blend of all his crazy encounters being married with child, bald, extremely good-looking, sarcastic (apparently), a business owner, and afflicted with an ever-present fear of the palmetto bug (which coincidentally is Florida’s state bird).

COMEDIAN JOHNNY LEE DAM A native of Los Angeles, Johnny began his actual comedy career in December of 1991. After a six-week class at a community college, he delivered his first five-minute set and was hooked for life! Since then he has toured throughout the U.S. and Canada, traveled into war zones to entertain the troops, starred in a national commercial, produced and hosted his own 2x award-winning radio show in the LA talk radio market, and written and directed two short films, one of which has won an award. He is the busiest comedian you've never heard of.

His shotgun-like delivery and scope of material has made him a crowd favorite among all ages and demographics… except his parents. Be it PG, PG-13, or R-rated, Johnny gives the audience what it wants. But beware, Johnny's humor is brutally honest, and if asked to define comedy he will simply tell you that every joke has a victim and the only thing funnier than the truth is the painful truth.
