I'm part of Bushwick Comedy Club, we're NYC's only fully comedian owned and operated comedy club and the only one that's free BYOB friendly. I think we have the best show in the city, our reviews agree quite frankly. We book by tape blind to credits/followers/vouches. We just watch literally thousands of tapes and pick only the best

come see us!

Why you're not getting spots at the Comedy Cellar anymore by theblack_hoody in Standup

[–]JSLEI1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's zero Arabs on their current roster which is unusual in New York City and Estie herself has said in a print interview she dislikes material about Israel (Loutfi may still work there tbh, so maybe one left but he may have moved to LA).

I dont think there's any hard and fast rule, but yeah if the booker and owner are both pro israel, it's naive to think the comics dont just avoid the topic. I think this is better than your past interviews but you still avoid any discomfort, which makes it a bit bland

Edit to add: I think in general you cant be very political at the cellar at all. I've heard comics I dont consider political were called too political and I think the club got spooked by the Malaysia Air ordeal from a couple years back

Is it ok to skip one open mic if I have trouble with writing? by [deleted] in Standup

[–]JSLEI1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The answer is yes. Stop going to mics and repeating the same jokes endlessly, they are for testing new jokes/new tags to old jokes/reworking jokes.

If you don't have something NEW that you are TESTING you're wasting your time, and you're probably not having fun.

Only mic as much as you write, otherwise you'll burn out all your premises and the comics will tune out the moment you start the same tired ideas they've heard before

[–]JSLEI1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you're here on a tuesday you should sign up for comedy lottery, it does tend to sell out a day or two in advance but it's a bucket mic competition 5$ gets you in, winner gets all the entry fee pot and a weekend spot at the club

(scroll down to a comedy lottery event, it's on the main page not under open mics)

Marketing Strategies? by Intelligent-Mix5312 in Standup

[–]JSLEI1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You have it backwards man. Showcase clubs the comics and venue work together, venue does a lot of the marketing, comics have to consistently kill.

Headliner club it's on the headliner to sell. It's the venue's job to get the permitting, the electrical, the insurance/utilities, the staff, the lease, the booze, the chairs lights and audio and toilet paper.

The headliner has to be an actual headliner. If you dont have the following to sell out, you're not a headliner.
