Yep, that's a valid concern, especially if you're already famous. (As far as I know) that was never an issue to me. It's good to be the peasant. I don't know

I don't know of a solution to this. No one wants to hear the same jokes for a decade. To get new "best stuff" you have to experiment. When you experiment, it may not be funny/ready. And with today's technology, it can be recorded at any time.
- jjore 13y agoWe solve this problem in Clown Jam by essentially just being audience for each other. It's open to anyone who wants to come practice but no one is a "civilian" and there are reasonable person ground rules about posting pictures and video.
- jjore 13y agoHere, our ground-rules were recently posted. https://www.facebook.com/notes/seattle-clown-jam/clown-jam-ground-rules/596638990397443 https://www.facebook.com/notes/seattle-clown-jam/clown-jam-g.... This is one potential model where performers can do challenging things in an environment that allows mistakes. Similarly, we have a Circus Open Mic in Seattle (https://www.facebook.com/events/533760116677373/ https://www.facebook.com/events/533760116677373/) where ground rules are that admission is free and open to the public but it's generally a supportive and in-community audience. We've had comedians, magicians, aerialists, acrobats, jugglers, extremely weird people, clowns, and strip history lessons. I present both of these as ideas for ways to develop and grow without being subject to eternal Google search indexing and YouTubing by random civilians. I think both of these seem to come down to controlling the venue and rules. If you experiment in a bar or club, you're in the wild. We do these in theatres, black boxes, and dance/performance spaces. This allows us to control the door.
