Comedians and Halloween

Am I performing in a comedy club tonight.   Nooooo...  Halloween is one of those nights when people (as in "audience") love to dress up and make scenes.  There are some holidays to steer clear of in the entertainment world and I think Halloween is a formidable challenge.  A costumed adult will takes advantage of his or her anonymity when watching a comedy show.  A mask or a well-painted face is tempting enough to bring out the heckler in even the most reserved customer.

Halloween is well-suited to bars where there is loud music and dancing.  Since effective comedy relies so strongly on good lights and good sound (and good jokes), it is better for the ghouls and goblins to make their screams and shrills in a party atmosphere.

Tonight I'm dressed as a cowgirl and I'm waiting for the doorbell to ring!
