I perform at any venue that has a microphone and two audience members. And an escalator. And a 5 piece band. And a barrel of Chuckles candy.

Once those conditions are in place, it's go time!

One time, a small boy living in Bloomfield, MO saw me on television and wanted me to come to his town. Unfortunately, his town did not have a comedy club, so his parents hired me to perform at his 15th birthday party. The show was a success. And every year I go back on the same date to commemorate my friendship with the entire town.

This was a fictional story to demonstrate a point. There are many ways to get a comedian to your town. I mean, there's probably some run-down club in that crappy hotel lounge next to your office. You could ask them to book me. They'll say no, but at least YOU TRIED. Then you could talk to your boss about bringing me in for the train-wreck social engagement that is your Christmas party. Your boss will say no, but it might get you some FACE TIME.
