This is a Great Time to Go to the Comedy Club!

This is a great time to hang out at your local comedy club. Why would I say such a thing.

Due to the economic downturn and a number of other factors the number of comedy clubs have decreased in recent years. High gas prices have cut out many of the one

Nighters which means fewer and fewer stages for the comic to work on. While this is a bad thing for the comics trying to hit it big it has also raised the bar to get the remaining gigs. The talent at your local comedy could be at an all time high. So it is a great time to go see some very talented performers.

Many of the headlining comics working the clubs today started out in the 80’s and 90’s and have spent years building and refining their acts. Today they are experienced and can deal with most any event that takes place during the show. These are the people that started out with Tim Allen, Rosie, and Ellen and are still working the comedy clubs and improving there skills. At the same time the younger acts are working hard to take one of the few headlining spots from the established acts. Some of them are outstanding talents and they have to be great just to compete. They are a treat to see and now is a great time to see them.

Once the reality craze on television slows down sit com’s will make a come back. The new shows will star the acts that are working in the clubs now. The list of successful television shows based on a stand up’s material is endless. It is a formula that has worked over and over, and will again to produce some excellent television shows. You will be the one saying I saw him or her at the comedy club.

There is one other great reason to go to the comedy club. It is good for you, laughter has been proven to be good for your health. It has been proven to reduce stress and it is just plain fun. If you live in one of the cities or towns that no longer has a comedy club you can get your laughs online. While it is not the same as a club experience, there are sites that offer great comedy clips and stand up comedy video for free.
