The Bonkerz Seal of Approval
Google defines Seal of Approval as a status or a recognition given to a product, service, or concept that meets certain criteria created by an organization or person.
The Bonkerz Seal of Approval is required before any comic can work for Bonkerz. These requirements include a commitment to professionalism, as well as providing a great experience for the audience. Bonkerz’ comics are given an itinerary for each venue that outlines show times, content requirements, contact information, lodging details and even a minimum time frame they must appear at the venue before the show.
Bonkerz’ comics typically work multiple Bonkerz venues every year. Some of our headlining comedians work as much as half of their calendar year just working for us. Their actions at each of our venues relates to their employment at all of our venues. Doing a good job in one location is how they earn the opportunity to work all of our locations. The converse is also true, so you can rest assured that the Bonkerz Seal of Approval is not easily earned and something that comics must maintain in order to perform at any and all Bonkerz locations.

Vince Carone
Vince Carone as seen on Comedy Central. Vince’s clever comedic voice, combined with a dominating stage presence, is what makes him a stand-out performer. Known for his fast-talking, quick-witted, over-the-top rants, Vince refuses to relent until he steps off the stage. It’s like he says “I know I’m not perfect, but I like to make sure others know that they aren’t either!” His drive and determination behind the scenes and his skewed daily observations fuel the fire that ignites during his side-splitting performances.
The chaotic, cathartic, complaints by Carone are summed up by his own public service announcement: “Better check the Doppler, there’s a sh*t-storm coming your way!”
Based out of Chicago, he spent his first few years finding his comedic voice while working his way up to headliner status across the country. Small successes along the way and throughout his standup career has led him to a local commercial during the 2008 MLB playoffs, a spot at the 2013 Laugh Your Asheville Off comedy festival, and Internet success “So You Have a Girlfriend”.
Carone has described himself growing up as an outside of the box, quasi jock, class clown who never quite fit in. He was athletic enough not to be the last guy picked in gym class and he was funny enough to be at the disposal of the popular class clown who used him to say the stuff he was too scared to say so that Vince could take the heat for it”. Spending his four years in high-school serving Breakfast Club type Saturday Detentions, it was at age seventeen when everyone started picking colleges that Carone knew his passion was in stand-up comedy…a place where the more unique you were, the more success you could have.
13-years into the business with three albums under his belt and a drive to continually deliver fresh, new material have made Vince Carone is a must see on the comedy circuit! The 31-year old comedian is starting to heat up and shows no signs of slowing down so check your local listings for a Vince Carone show!
