Get Erik on America's Got Talent

Hey Friends,

So here's the sitch. Casting at America's Got Talent stumbled on one of my stand up clips, liked it a whole bunch, and offered me an opportunity to get a front of the line fast pass audition for the show.

The problem: Auditions are being held right in the middle of when I'm on the road telling jokes. Comedy is my bread and butter and I can't not take the road work because I need the funds to buy things like food and bills and discounted pizza, but also a new TV credit on AGT in addition to possibily winning the million $ would be a dream come true.

The solution: I'm going to be on the road in Bend, Oregon, take a red eye back to LA for the audition, then fly back the following morning to Spokane, Washington to finish the run of shows. It's doable. Crazy, but doable.

I need your help to pay for that plane ticket. I currently have $22 and income on the road is going to be minimal, but necessary to make. Your contribuation could make it a possibility to secure an amazing opportunity that I might not be able to ever experience. This is a total "please give me money" kind of deal, but if I can pull this off, it would be a MASSIVE success not just for me, but for you and every one of my fans, family, and friends who have supported me along the way through this crazy comedy dream. I'm asking you to invest in me. A lot of you have seen and been a part of this expereince since I started telling jokes. From empty basements and dive bars to working the road, getting more film/TV credits, and even headlining clubs (and also still doing empty basements and dive bars). If you've ever seen a facebook post, gone to a show, or saw a clip and thought "Hey, Erik can do this. He can make it" then I'm asking for your help to help me do this. Help me make it. This isn't just my journey. It's ours. Help me be the Daniel Bryan of comedy and beat the odds to be a top guy. If I lost you on that last wrestling reference, please disregard and donate anyways.

Thanks, Friends.
