    If you want something different, some comedy with spice, then Mark Britten--”Chinaman”--is the way to go. His impressions are legendary: Musically, from Matchbox 20’s Rob Thomas to Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler, Mark’s act grabs you right from the get go and doesn’t let you out of his hilarious grip ‘til he’s done at least 45 minutes of laugh-ab workout. The Austin Chronicle described Britten as a "a rock star trapped in a comic’s body." You also may know The Chinaman from his multiple visits on “The Bob & Tom” nationally-syndicated radio show--they love the Arnold Schwarzenegger impersonations! Among his other impressions that are crowd favorites are Dave Matthews, Garth Brooks, Eddie Vedder and the B-52s. He also voices seven characters of “Dragonballz” on the Cartoon Network, and has released a comedy CD, entitled “Dis-Oriented Chinaman.” And his act is hardly just confined to voices and music. He also weaves in material mocking his Chinese heritage and other observations, including such probing questions as “If a vegetarian bites his lip, does he feel guilty?”
