In the Summer of 2005 Joe Lavelle began a year-long Monthly Residency at one of Hollywood's hippest underground Comedy Venues, The M Bar !

The apex of the BIG Rock n' Roll Comedy Show came about through Joe Lavelle's involvement with The "Weird Al" Star Fund , a completely fan-driven campaign to raise the sponsorship fee to put Rock n' Roll Comedy legend "Weird Al" Yankovic on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The Joe Lavelle BIG Rock n' Roll Comedy Show presents "I Think I'm a Clone Now", an "AL-Star" Tribute to "Weird Al" Yankovic , mentioned by MTV, Filter Magazine, and L.A. Alternative Press, paid tribute to "Weird Al" drawing a sold out crowd to legendary Los Angeles music venue, The Mint .
2006 saw the release of Joe Lavelle’s full length Rock n’ Roll Comedy album, More Popular Than Reagan . The album was lovingly produced by the much sought-after talented indie producer Cynthia Catania founder of olivoiL records and songwriting member of hot Los Angeles Pop-Rockers Saucy Monky!
