Silver-tressed vet/comic Kevin Fitzgerald almost needs no intro. But if you’re new to Denver or comedy (or just live under a rock), he’s the man who made Animal Planet’s “Emergency Vets” a household word, the man who began his professional life as a roadie for The Rolling Stones. The Fitz will be at Comedy Works at the Landmark Wednesday to release his new DVD, “A Wild Life,” which packages a full comedy set, animal expedition videos and kids games. A fifth of proceeds benefits the Denver Zoo. Tickets are $12; passes are allowed; the show’s at 7:30 p.m. and the club’s at 5345 Landmark Place in Greenwood Village. Said Fitzgerald, in , on why he became a vet:
“At the end of the ’78 tour, Keith Richards told me I should go to school and do something with my life. He told me I gotta get a grip. And when Keith tells you something, you listen.”
