Describing Kenny's stand-up routines, Goldthwait said, "Tom would get

up there and talk about his therapist and he didn't even have a

therapist, he just loved Woody Allen."Kenny went to Bishop Grimes

Junior/Senior High School, a Catholic high school. After college,

Kenny performed stand-up comedy around the country for about eight

years before he moved on to other venues.
