When we last spoke to Joe Sib, he was gearing up to release a 30-minute special coming out on Dry Bar Comedy . Well, that was back in April of 2022 for one of our sister publications, The Punk Site. It seems like whatever Sib was planning with Dry Bar Comedy never, actually, came to fruition; so, he just decided to drop it himself! Sib's now calling it You Don't Even Know: A Stand-up Comedy Special and it's a side-splitting 22-minute mini-special recorded live at Denver Comedy Works. So, walking it back a little bit here... Joe Sib is one of the co-founders of iconic Punk label SideOneDummy Records and helped sign everyone from Flogging Molly to KILL YOUR IDOLS. Sib was the frontman for Front Line/Frontline, Lifeline, WAX with Loomis Fall (Jack*ss, CKY, Wildboyz,) and 22 Jacks along with members of The Adolescents, The Breeders, No Use for A Name, Weezer, Joyride, Goldfinger, and Face to Face.


Just a couple of SideOneDummy's latest Sib-assisted signees are buzz bands, like CLIFFDIVER, Plasma Canvas, and SEMANTICS. Sib discusses everything from the trials and tribulations of raising an often-shirtless 18-year-old son to ppotential "side-effects" of the Coronavirus/COVID-19 vaccine over the course of 22 minutes. Sib is hilarious, witty, poignant and has an interesting perspective having been involved in both the Punk/Hardcore scene and music industry (on two different sides) since the mid-80's. You Don't Even Know: A Stand-up Comedy Special By Joe Sib is now available to stream exclusively on Sib's YouTube channel.

"You Don't Even Know!"
