Gains Kelly - Stand up comedian
Gains is a good 'ol boy(1) sometimes called a redneck(2) from a really small town(3) in Oklahoma, which is where the roots of his blue-collar style of comedy come from. This redneck(2) has a likeable delivery and easy to listen to style paced for lots of BIG laughs. Topics range from divorce and family, friends, dating fluffy girls(4), the homeless, and a really unfortunate demise of a pony. Audiences, young and old alike, enjoy and relate to his material. Gains has been on the road for the last five years and is working clubs, bars, VFW's and Elks Lodges from coast to coast. He was a finalist in the Gulf South Comedy Challenge in New Orleans in the Fall of 2009. In the Spring of 2009 he was invited to participate in Yuk Yuk's Great Canadian Laugh Off in Toronto Canada making him an International Comedian.
Gains is also part of the Branson Comedy All-stars, which is a non-profit organization raising money for abused children and other charities.

(1) Good ol' boy is a slang term used in the United States, either to self-identify as or to refer to a male, usually white and of Northern/Western-European descent, who lives in a rural area and/or subscribes to a traditionally "rural" lifestyle. The term is generally thought to originate in the rural areas of the southern and southwestern U.S. While other terms such as redneck, hick, yokel, "Bubba", and "white trash" are also applied, though usually pejoratively and are often interchanged with "good ol' boy," the "good ol' boy" is more of an idealized image of rural Americans.

Originally limited to the Southern United States, the term has become widely used throughout North America.
