I’m a comic in a city that really doesn’t give that much of a shit about comedy.  I’m just as much to blame.  I don’t go to many shows.  Here in Salt Lake City we have four or five great comedy shows a year come through.  That’s really not too many.  We should take advantage of the few that we have.  Doug Stanhope, David Cross, Tig Notaro, just to name a few we have had this year.  The more people that go to these shows, the more great comics we will get in this town.  The more you go to these shows, the less you’ll see some shitty open mic comic that promises the club owner he’ll bring his relatives, and his singles ward to the show.
