Watch Out, Watermelons; Gallagher Is Coming West

Stand-up comedian Gallagher has smashed about 20,000 watermelons during his career, and he's not likely to stop anytime soon. Gallagher is coming to the West with BIRTHDAY BASH! Gallagher The Joke's On You Comedy Tour With Special Guest Artie Fletcher.

He says, "So many comedians think comedy is therapy — that they should talk about their life ... but it's a service business where you bring something the audience wants." Gallagher tailors his shows to incorporate local places, events and issues that are relevant to his audience.

Michael Marsolek is the program director of Montana Public Radio. He also hosts Tuesday Freeforms and Thursday Morning Classics.
