Jimmy now tours the United States headlining at comedy clubs, performance halls, colleges, local venues, and military bases. If you want to laugh at the misfortune of being human while relating to your own struggles, then Jimmy McCartney is the comedian you need to check out; especially if you want some laughs about life in the Adirondacks. Come on out for the return of Plattsburgh's own Jimmy McCartney.
