More Random Observations
I have been trying new material and some of it is working so I can do longer sets. I have been thinking about the economics of standup comedy and wonder whether the demise of the sitcoms is “clogging the pipeline” with too many standup comics. In the past, many of the best went off to do TV - now maybe more are staying around and making it hard at every level to move up. I don’t know but when I see established professionals doing an hour at a marginal site on a Saturday nite for $100, it makes me wonder. Anyhow, I’m continuing to work on dialect, writing and new material.
