Marcus isn’t the only Last Comic Standing finalist to grace the stage at Wiseguys. Louis Ramey—who came in fifth last season—is out to prove that his unfortunate end on LCS was, as many fans believe, highway robbery.

Ramey’s resume is impressive:

He’s had his own Comedy Central special, appeared on The Tonight Show and Showtime at the Apollo, and hosted the Nick @ Nite Road Crew for four years. He has also become popular at college campuses, earning 2009 “Best College Performer” honors from the Association for the Promotion of Campus Activities. He’s recently been tapped to host Prime Fridays on TV Land. Needless to say, Ramey is doing just fine even without the LCS win.

His experience onstage and in front of the camera has made him extremely comfortable in front of an audience, and his happy, energetic style is easy to love. Spend an hour with this guy, and you’ll find yourself asking, “How on earth did he only get fifth place?”

Louis Ramey @ Wiseguys West Valley City, 2194 W. 3500 South, 801-463-2909, Sept. 18-19, 8 & 10 p.m. WiseguysComedy.com
