Open Mic (or something along those lines) for 16 year old aspiring singing comedian?

[Bialystock93]

Hello,

I am currently working on trying to do stand up with my comedy songs, but I've run into a problem. Being 16 years of age, most places aren't interested in letting me perform. This is something I've been working on for a while and I'd love a new place to perform.

Here are some attached songs that I do. If anyone knows of anything, please let me know. It really means alot to me.

Thanks so much,

Andy

I would just say stick to stuff you know.
You don't have to worry about a one night stand from 'too much' extacy it won't work. Trust me.

Search for all-ages venues. Generally, those are places that sell food and not just alcohol. Or maybe try a community center or church (if you can keep it clean). Maybe wait til you're a bit older. When you find a place, do what I do.. Perform some songs, then tell some jokes.. then go back to performing songs and so forth. Or start auditioning for stuff. The world is your oyster!

Thanks for the feedback. I am still looking for places, and I'm not coming up with any answers. I performed at Pressure Cafe, which was great and I plan on going back, but I'm hoping to go to other places too.

Any other help would be great.

Thanks
