Chris performed at nearly every Improv Comedy club in his way to Los Angeles, opening for such comedians as Daman Wayans, Charlie Murphy, Tony Rock and Sara Silverman. He was nearly arrested when he reached MySpace headquarters. He was warned by MySpace HeadQuarters Building Superintendant, while mediated by a police officer on the scene, that he was prohibited from entering the building ever again. He was warned that he would be arrested was found there anymore. There has never been any official public statement on the matter, by Tom Anderson, or any MySpace public relations officials.
