Rock'n Randy Brings Laughs to the Library.
Comedian Randy Novick brings some old-school comedy to Lindenhurst Memorial Library.

By Rick Karas


Head to your local library. Check out a book, surf the Internet, do some research...and, now, enjoy a day of comedy.

Lindenhurst Memorial Library decided to try something new as part of their Live at LML Sunday series when Rock'n Randy recently performed, bringing a bit of old-school, stand-up comedy to the library.

The library generally holds concerts at part of their 'Live' lineup. Opera, jazz and the popular Liverpool Shuffle, a Beatles tribute band, are just some of the events taking place. Now it was time to go the comedy route.

"I just said comedy might be a little different," LML Events Coordinator Sara Fiorenzo said. "I saw him [online], I said [he's a] clean comedian, I want to give it a try."

It's a library crowd, so the humor is definitely PG. That suits Randy Novick, aka Rock'n Randy, just fine. He's been performing stand-up for 20 years, usually doing private shows for organizations throughout the region.

Randy was a bandleader as a teenager, and performed background music for many entertainers. Folks kept telling him he looked and sounded like Rodney Dangerfield. He grabbed a mic, and an act was born.

Randy channels the legendary comedian in his act, right down to the red necktie. The one-liners come fast and furious, about family and everyday life.

"Basically [my act] is a take of Rodney Dangerfield/Henny Youngman. I'm from the old school. I love these old time comedians," Randy said."Their jokes are the best."

Like the one about his wife crashing the car into a tree. "'Hey, I honked the horn,'" Randy recalled her telling him.

Or bringing home a date that looked like his mother. His father couldn't stand her (cue the drum roll).

And the old standby: "My wife wanted to go someplace she'd never seen before. I said, 'Try the kitchen.'"

The lines are tried and true, and get laughs from the audience at the library. It's certainly a different dynamic than one would find at the comedy clubs.

'"People who come to a library usually don't see stand-up comedians, so they find it quite interesting," Randy said. "They find it very exciting, whereas they don't usually see this unless [it's on] television."

To keep things moving, Randy dug into his music background, pulls out his clarinet and added a little jazz to the festivities and that is how he got the nickname.

"It's because of my posture. I stand up. It seems like I rock...the perfect name," he said.

Fiorenzo was waiting on the feedback from the crowd to decide if comedy would become a mainstay at the library, and the early feedback from attendees was positive. They enjoyed getting a laugh at a place you wouldn't expect.

"This is something different," Rhoda Weiss of West Babylon said.

A dose of Dangerfield at the library? I guess it is.



Randy was very entertaining and professional. He was on time as well. We hired him to roast my mother-in-law for her 60th birthday. He did a great job. He remembered all of the funny things we told him about her and made everyone laugh very hard. His regular routine was very funny as well. He also performed an old jazz tune on his clarinet that was excellent! For the money, you can't do much better than Rockn Randy! Thanks Randy!!!---Tara D. Seaford,NY.


Rockn Randy was very accommodating. He called and checked in and kept us informed of what he was going to talk about. He asked questions about our family, so that he could incorporate them into the show. He poked fun at some of the people in the audience, and everyone enjoyed him. He was funny and kept us laughing. The day after the show, I had a lot of people coming up and thanking me for finding a great entertainer. Thank you Rockn Randy-Steve Levin, South Fallsburg,NY.-


Randy is a multi-talented professional comedian and musician. He came to our home and provided us and all our guests with laughter and entertainment. He made sure we got what we wanted and we greatly appreciated it. -- Chris A, Ridgewood, NJ,



VERY PLEASANT, PROFESSIONAL SERVICE, 1 HR OF COMEDY, MUSIC, AND FUN. GREAT TIME FOR ALL! -- Karen P, Cape May Court House, NJ,

  • Rockn Randy was amazing, my family all enjoyed him. Sure he had a couple of jokes that didn't go over well but he let it roll right off him and kept going without a problem. It's difficult to always get a laugh, especially since we were such a small group, but most of his jokes were right on! My father, the guest of honor at the birthday party didn't stop laughing for a moment. The next day he told me his sides were hurting he laughed so hard. Rockn Randy was nothing but a pure professional with a well oiled show, he even played well with the audience. Best act I've seen in a long time. -- Nikki B, Forked River, NJ, 7/31/2010

  • Rockn Randy was wonderful! Enjoyed his performance very much. He resembles Rodney Dangerfield and my husband noticed that right away. Rockn Randy had a tough crowd because I, the host, had a compact party filled with non- stop entertainment and did not fit him in the right spot. Rockn Randy was very professional and worked the crowd. He was so much fun. I would use him again and give him the full spotlight with nothing else happening around his performance. -- Ang F, Bronxville, NY, 10/10/2009
  • Rockn Randy is very professional and talented. If you are in need of laughter, yet touched by music (for he plays the clarinet) I highly recommend you contact Rockn Randy. He accommodated us by keeping his performance very clean yet hilarious. He sernaded us with his music and of course, his "Rodney Dangerfield" one-liners brought back so many memories. We give him a 5+ overall rating and pray for his continued success. -- Deborah S, Altoona, PA, 1/10/2009
  • Quite frankly I thought he was easier to watch than Rodney Dangerfield. His deliveries were smooth and uncomplicated. My Family was impressed with his cheerfulness and lack of vulgarities. And the musical touch was a BONUS! You guy's are lucky to have him on your team. In conclusion, Rocking Randy put on a GREAT show! -- Robert A, Rego Park, NY, 3/14/2009
  • Rockn Randy is a true professional. We had a very small space for him to work in but that did not affect his performance which was excellent. He had everyone laughing. He made my husband's 50th birthday celebration extra special. Thanks. -- Teresa S, New Hyde Park, NY, 3/21/2009

Thanks again Randy Steve Mountes -- Steven M, Somerdale, NJ, 7/14/2007
