Outback Concerts presents JOHN PINETTE at Tampa Theatre

When describing his own stand-up, Pinette says “I talk about my life; it is the funniest thing I can think of.” His current comedy special “Still Hungry” debuted on Comedy Central in July and was released on DVD in August. The food-obsessed, storytelling Pinette, delivers smart, original, Bill Cosby-influenced observations on everyday life. “Still Hungry” is a follow-up to his successful “I’m Starvin’!” and “Show Me the Buffet” CD’s and DVD’s.

John Pinette is no rookie to the stage. For the past sixteen years, Pinette has been in entertainment one way or another. He caught his big break when he was asked to tour with Frank Sinatra and he’s since become a regular guest on The Tonight Show and The View. Most recently, Pinette came off the theatrical stage and to the stand-up stage after wrapping up his starring role as ‘Edna Turnblad’ in the winning Broadway musical Hairspray.
