Better known in Otahuhu as the J Doggg or The Godfather of Geriatric Rap, John Carr is the first  performer to make to make  the  difficult transition from hard edged street rap to stand-up comedy  without missing a beat.

Giving up a 55 year quest to be taken seriously,  Carr joined the world of stand-up comedy in 2010 and hasn't  looked back. He has  become a popular performer in Auckland, has a cult following in Hamilton, and  gets completely ignored by audiences in Browns Bay.

In the 2013 New Zealand International Comedy Festival he is performing his first solo show. Yo Yo Yo!runs from April 27 to May 4 at the Classic Studio. Check it out at http://www.yoyoyo.co.nz  .
