“Well, I think that when I perform on the road I always thank the audience for buying a ticket because it's a big deal to buy a ticket for a live entertainment, get a baby-sitter and pay for the meal, the parking, whatever.” ThinkingWellsBigsDealsPayAudienceBabyEntertainmentMealsBuyingTicketsBig DealParking Author:Kathy Griffin
“I wanted to make sure that my act was family friendly for tonight, but I don't have babies. So I thought that maybe I could pretend that I had babies and that way I could appeal to the people in the audience who have babies and to the people who like to pretend that they have babies.” PeopleWayHumorWantedFunnyAudienceBabyAppealsTonightFriendlyFamily Friends Author:Kristen Schaal
“When you see someone, you automatically start putting those people together - the eyes and the lips. And what that does is that it creates an identity with that person, so when they actually start working, the audience sees exactly what you're seeing, and they become recognizable. So instant recognition is when certain women and men have features that look like other people. So baby Gisele is, like, Linda V - that's what she was called for a long time.” PeopleMenLooksPersonsLongDoeEyeTogetherCertainAudienceSeeingIdentityBabyLong TimeMen And WomenLipsRecognitionFeaturesInstant Author:Michael Flutie
“It's funny, now that we have Twitter and Facebook and stuff, you can really see how you affect fans. Before all that, fans couldn't tell you exactly how they feel, unless they came up after a show, and even then you can't stand there and talk to everybody in the audience. So it's nice to see people tweet me and say, "Your music has changed my life," or "I had my baby to your music," or "I got married to your music." I've heard so many things, and it's amazing to hear people's stories and how you affect their life.” PeopleAudienceNiceChangedBabyMarriedTweetChanged My LifeMy Baby Author:Robert Glasper
“When a population becomes distracted by trivia, when cultural life is redefined as a perpetual round of entertainments, when serious public conversation becomes a form of baby-talk, when, in short, a people become an audience, and their public business a vaudeville act, then a nation finds itself at risk; culture-death is a clear possibility.” PeopleFormLife IsCultureNationsAudienceClearRiskPossibilitySeriousBabyConversationRoundsPopulationEntertainmentPerpetualDistractedTriviaVaudevilleBaby Talk Book:Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business Source: Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business
