Adam Norwest: His brain developed just enough to be really funny.
TACOMA REPRESENT! >>>
When comedian Adam Norwest, 25, returns to his home by Point Defiance Park he'll be wearing a shiny crown. Yesterday morning he learned he won Country Music Television's Next Big Comic title. Norwest began his comic career at age 13. In a few short years he was the youngest comedian ever to compete in the prestigious Seattle International Comedy Competition and has been seen on cable TV's Man Up, Stand Up, as well as Comedy Brew.
Now he's king of CMT comedy. Well done sir.
The Weekly Volcano caught up with Norwest from Birmingham, Alabama.
WEEKLY VOLCANO: Congratulations Adam. What did you win?
ADAM NORWEST: I won the title of CMT's Next Big Comic, and a recording deal with Rooftop Comedy Records.
VOLCANO:Take us through the steps to the crown.
NORWEST: The competition had thousands of comedians, which was narrowed down to 12 by CMT. Then, through online voting by fans, CMT narrowed it down to the final four. They flew us to Birmingham to compete live in front of 500 people at the Stardome. After the live show, and a little more voting, it was announced yesterday that I won.
VOLCANO: What was the joke that nailed it?
NORWEST: I'm 25 years old, and I just found out your brain is fully developed at 25. Dammit.
VOLCANO: When may Tacoma bow in your presence?
NORWEST: I will be opening for Dave Coulier (Uncle Joey from Full House) March 22-24 at the Tacoma Comedy Club, and then back to headline the club on May 3.
