I'll go back to comedy clubs when they get a real no-camera policy, the same way they did with smoking.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If I find a comedy club where no one's camera works, I'll go.
But filming is good for you, because the crew isn't allowed to laugh. You can't get addicted to getting the laugh.
People bring camera phones into comedy shows and clubs and concerts, and sound bites never come out right.
In Hollywood you can't even smoke in a bar anymore and yet in the movies they're always showing people smoking. I don't get it.
I don't want to smoke on screen, as I will be sending a wrong message to my fans, and I appeal to my costars too, to avoid smoking scenes if possible.
Comedy clubs can be brutal. Those people are for real, and if you aren't funny, they aren't laughing. They don't care who you are.
I like seeing comedians do stuff that I could never do.
With comedy, you have no place to go but more comedy, so you're never off the hook.
I mean, all alternative comedy is are comedians that have being doing it for so long, for so long, that they were relaxed enough to start becoming personal on stage.
Comedy clubs are sacred ground. That's where anything goes.
