Gary Delaney's advice to comics

https://twitter.com/GaryDelaney/status/1237328585142263808

"Sometimes young comics ask me for advice. Here's some I gave in a recent interview which they seem to have printed pretty much in full. It might be useful to a few of you. Feel free to disagree on it of course. My map may not be your map."

As for the advice I would give to younger comedians starting out, it would be to say that talent is abundant, the willingness to work hard is rare. Write every day. Gig every night. You'll progress.

Don't speak too fast, stick to your time, do a litte pause before the funny bit, don't waffle, fake confidence, hold the mic near your mouth, be polite, and stay in the light.
