I don't know Bill Personally but obtained his info after one of the BROADS of BROADWAY, Linda Belt, told me about him. She worked with him and told me he's great, I checked it out and she was right. Google him and watch the clips, In my opinion, this is the Heir to the Freddie Prinze throne.

This guy is absolutely brilliant and coming up quickly and currently on his Comedy Central tour "Pardon My Spanglish"

Subject: You're Funny

Dear Mr. Santiago,

You were very good tonight on Craig Ferguson's show. Smart, funny, and
no need for swearing. After moving furniture and vacuuming much of
today it was a welcome relief to laugh during an otherwise sleepy night.

Sincerely,

hi bill,


saw you on craig ferguson last week.. very funny.
i can relate to spanglish, sort of... i'm russian and have noticed that many russian speaking people tend to intertwine russian and english. my brothers and i call it runglish. it's absolutely hideous!

watched your videos... hysterical!

are you coming to seattle anytime soon?

hope you have a great weekend.
cheers,

Re: La Pinata....uh, I mean La Pena!

Bill,

I caught your act tonight at La Pena--had just seen you last month at Universal City (KP National Diversity Conference).
I was concerned that I might not find you as funny the 2nd time around. Guess what? I laughed even harder this time!
Right on. Great show. Thanks for the laughs.

Lisa

PS- I wanted to pick up your book tonight, but only had a credit card and was worried it might not go through.
Yes, I pray everytime I hand mine over to a cashier!

From Vernon

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the e-mail, and thanks for the great show.

You're so good at connecting with your audience; they seemed to experience your comedy rather than just watch it, and your show had such a feeling of warmth to it.
I love sarcastic, cynical comics as much as the next guy (I'm asking Lewis Black to sit in for me at my son's career day), but you don't leave a Denis Leary show feeling like mankind is all one big happy family. In contrast; not only did I laugh my ass off at your set, but afterwards I wanted to rush home, give my whole family a hug, then sign up for a few volunteer programs. Good stuff.

Thanks again,

-Vernon

Hi Bill!

I'm a big fan of yours, I saw ur special on comedy central one night a couple of yrs ago, con mis primas, and we pissed our pants laughing so hard. I just had to see you live, so we all got lucky enough to go to one of ur gigs at a comedy club in NYC shortly after. It was a great intimate experience, I had messaged you before going and you told me to come see you after the show. I did that and you went backstage and gave me a copy of your special on DVD, I'll never forget it. I make all my friends and family members to sit down and watch that dvd anytime they want to see a good stand up show. They're never disappointed...it's one of those things where we can incorporate so many of your quotes into our everyday lives (bring nuyorican myself) and still crack up.

But enough of the mushy stuff! Take care, I'm going to be ordering a copy of your book and I'll let you know when I finish it =)

hugs & besos - Cyn

From JL

PERO OMG when were you at Wellesley?!!
I am so upset I missed you.

I was on youtube randomly surfing and being the huge nuyorican I am, I typed in "puerto rican comedy".

I stumbled upon your spanglish and I absolutely loved it. I then emailed it to my only other Puerto Rican here at Babson College, then made him watch it with me.
I was home in NYC for the weekend and I showed my parents, my mom was laughing hysterically. My father is a serious white castle man, when my older siblings were young he tells me stories of the 10 cent burgers LOL

From Rene

Hey que paso Bill,

It was awesome running into you on 24th today. I would have stayed and talked a bit longer but I was in a hurry. What I didn't get to say that I wanted to was that I was at your show in Hermosa Beach when that lady made the comment about why there haven't been any black presidents. ¡Que racista! I couldn't believe she said that, my friend and I were both shocked. The ignorance of some people still amaze me!

Keep up the great work Bill, I love your comedy and your use of Spanglish. You bring a great perspective to the Latino experience in the U.S. and I look forward to seeing you perform in SF on your next visit.

-René

From: Pantea

Hey Bill,

Guess what?? I was able to still catch your show with all the workshops I was taking, I was so excited I could make it. I came by to your Saturday show and had a blast. You are out of this world amazing.. sorry I didn't say hi, I had to rush out to catch a performance at Cafe Cocomo by Eddie Torres from NYC.

You are also an amazing Tangero, wow!!! You are a big hit with dancers, and this show will be a huge success, NO DOUBT!!

I hope that you have recorded one of the 'The funny of (Latin) Dance shows & will sell it, cause I'll be the first to buy it..

Wish you all the best, you are amazing, I can't say it enough!!!

Latino-curious

From: Ana L.

Bill Santiago was terrific.

He is funny, thoughtful and very good at improvising. The audience was great.

I appreciated his humor which was not at the expense of anyone. I had a wonderful time.

(Re: The Funny of Latin Dance)

From: Priss

We had a great time!

The show was extremely funny and the comedian made it feel less like a show than a bunch of friends sitting around talking. He's a good dancer too.

Bill Santiago is extremely funny. He must come back and perform again.

Comedy Central Presents: Bill Santiago
This guy is hilarious. One of his jokes goes like this:

Mexicans get shot trying to get into this country (US)

Cubans get shot trying to leave their country

And Puerto Ricans get shot trying to HAVE their OWN country.

Politically incorrect for some but if you can't laugh at life's inconsitencies then la vida se te amarga...Oops Spanglish. Bill Santiago also reflects on our use of Spanglish. Click on the link below.

Just wanted to tell you that I think you a stunning man and a brilliant comic. ( don't calculate order) can't always relate when you go towards the Latin end ( I fear it keeps you marginalize, but HELL! ...you may have found your niche and are riding the big wave) but I alway thought you'd at the very least have your own thing on Comedy Central ... yes I know ...but I mean all the time..you're damn funnier than Louis Black for Gawd's sake!!
I feel privileged to have seen you one night when you were pure genius. It was the night you forgot your lines somewhere in the MIssion.... a friend of yours told me at the end of the set...I never even sensed it. I think it gave a fresh, off the hip quality to the act and your improvisations were sharp and cunning .
I fell in love with you then.
Keep up the good work .

hahaaaaa. I found him to be very refreshing, there were truths behind what he said, only magnified, and he does it with a style all his own, "Puerto Ricans get shot at trying to have their own nation," that was priceless when he said that. The whole thing was awesome.

Bill,

Caro and I loved the show last night. Sorry we couldn't stay longer. I was impressed with your command of the room and how you continue to polish your act throughout the years. Your set was fresh, timely, and moved well. I hope you had a good a time as we did. Thanks for telling us you were nearby. When you're back in CT, let us know so we can hang out and catch up more.

Late, Chris

Me gusta Bill Santiago!!

That is the extent of my Spanish skills BUT I have to say- I love you Bill Santiago because you were the one to put a label on the affliction I couldn't explain!! Thanks to you I now understand that I am "Latino curious" and proud!! Before I saw you on comedy central-- every time I spoke to a Latino, as a white girl from the suburbs, there was a spark of interest and excitement when I heard Spanish I could not understand... until you so eloquently explained it as being "Latino curious".
As aspiring cruise ship comics ourselves-- My perita & I really enjoyed your show & wish you much success and joy!! (are U impressed I know a small female dog is a peritA not a perro or perito??:)
!!Viva Bill Santiago!! (I may be white but I do know I just wished you long life... right?? ('Cause some very nice Puerto Ricans from my neighborhood said that's what 'Viva' means while I was walking by a sign that said 'Viva Jesus!' & asked them for an explanation- they didn't lie to me did they?)
Wishing you all the best-:)

What's up Senor Santiago,

I saw you about two weeks ago at HA! It was funny because your jokes sounded a little familiar, but I wasn't too positive... but I had seen you on Comedy Central about a year ago. You're hilarious. Just thought i'd tell ya that. I wrote a blog about your stand up. hopefully, it will give ya some more fans.
