I know a lot of sad people who aren’t comedians.
Honestly, it’s hard to learn about comedy from comedians. Comedy is not something that you necessarily learn or can imitate. You’re funny or you’re not, and you hope what you’re doing is funny.
At comedy festivals, we always get grouped with other musical comedians, so you can get to know them and see what everyone is doing. it’s really fun and awesome that we’re the only girls, because we can tackle issues that guys can’t sing about.
Before Twitter, if comedians wrote what they had for lunch on a Post-it and put it through your letterbox you wouldn’t find it acceptable – but now apparently it is on Twitter.
Comedians do movies and TV so that when they tour, they sell out. That’s the goal: To get popular enough so the place is packed.
