John Pinette told his twitter followers earlier this year that he was physically spent after losing a lot of weight and undergoing some small surgeries, and would have to take a break from work. Pinette wrote, “I didn’t give myself enough time to heal this past fall and it has caught up to me, but I’m on the mend and I promise to hit the stage as soon as humanly possible.”

Pinette was in college working on an accounting degree when he started performing at the Boston Comedy Clubs in the 1980s. He was working at a bank when he was offered $100 a night to perform at a club.
