Most performers have had bad nights. I heard Bob Newhart at a seminar say that any comic who said he never had a bad night, is a liar. However, most comics have also had gloriously successful nights. Audiences reacted to every nuance and laughed appreciatively. It’s a fantastic feeling. Often in doing my routines, I picture myself at the microphone getting that same marvelous receoption. When I do, I stand a little taller, speak more boldly, and deliver my material with confidence. It usually makes for a better performance.
