A thank you to my audiences

I might have already thanked my audiences, but I really cannot thank them enough! Last night I did yet another Pundits with Punchlines out at Pepperbellys in Fairfield, CA. The middle of the week audience was light, but once the show got going, the audience was willing to go on the journey.

They laughed, enjoyed the comics and their gaffes. I must have flubbed at least two jokes, but the audience took it all in stride and laughed their sides out. An environment like that allows me to experiment, riff, and really have fun on stage. I feed on the audience, who feed on me, and it brings the entire show to life.

If there is a good audience, it means there is a not-so-good audience as well. An audience that is tired, sceptical, or "I really didn't want to be here" is a comic's nightmare.

A good comic should be able to work with what they have, and bring life into the room. Sometimes that just doesn't happen. And that's life! Thankfully last night was different.
