New experience in NYC: a good comedy club! Prior to this evening, my only NY stand-up comedy experience was last summer when my dad and brother were in town. We foolishly followed one of those street-ticket-selling-comedy club promoters. Being in NYC only a month, I lacked the ability to detect a scam quick enough (i've been training... i'm much better now). Anyway, worst stand-up I've ever experienced in my life! Truly wretched!
BUT TONIGHT... hilarious! A friend from work was invited to perform at a great spot in NYC called Comix Comedy Club. It was "new talent" night, but there were quite a few veteran performers in the line-up as well! One or two comedians kinda bombed, but I must proclaim that my friend, Megan, was the best! So stinkin' funny and so confident. She took care of the audience by owning the room. Soooo hard to do. Especially since there were about 12 of us from work coming to support her AND we were seated in the front! I love that about working the service industry though. I would say just about everyone has something else that they love. And when someone is displaying their talents, we support them b/c we're in the exact same boat! Its a family, of sorts!
