Because I play so dang many different stringed instruments, Wallace asked me to come on the show about once a week or so with a different instrument each time so the kids watching could get exposed to some "neat stuff." I happily accepted. Being on "Wallace and Ladmo" was a Good Thing in more ways than just publicity for my Funny Fellows gig. I was working as an Artist-In-Residence in the Elementary Schools at the time, and it gave me all kinds of credibility with the kids. It also helped to show kids, and adults too, that someone who stutters is not stupid or retarded (yes, there are people who seem to think so!). Some of the segments are not complete, as we either ran out of tape or got to the VCR a bit behind. Sorry 'bout that. If someone out there has a better copy, or a segment I don't show here, I'd LOVE to have a copy of it!
