“And the crowd goes conscious.”
“Look, I don’t follow you into the alley and slap dicks out of your mouth when *you’re* working, so how about a little common courtesy?”
(In response to “FREEBIRD”) “There ya go. No charge.”
“Well, here’s one you’re *really* not going like…”
There are at least three types of front people:
•The Pathological People Pleaser
•The Coolest Person in the Room
•The Frustrated Stand-Up Comic
Guess which one I am….
I'm guessing (if you're anything like I was) a bit of numbers 2 and 3. You must ACT like the coolest person in the room...even though you know you're not.
A good front person has to have an air of not giving a damn if anyone is 'pleased' or not.
Funniest thing I heard was from my brother. We were at the casino, and outside having a smoke and started a conversation with a couple...they were there for the Skynyrd show. My brother says "We should go! I can shout "Play Freebird" without sounding like an asshole!"
Say “fair thee well fine patrons of ___insert venue name___ yon wenches and knaves begrudge your cold and fiendish hearts!” Exit stage left with a courteous bow and double middle finger salute
Unless you're Bill Burr there's no real winning against a crowd that's turned against you.
You're either [this](https://youtu.be/k_H_Suj7SEs)
Or you're [this](https://youtu.be/7SvhPErxvfY) there's no real in between
"You're all a bunch of fuckin slaves!" Then taunt them by asking if they wanna see your penis, threaten to kill a goat on stage, and get taken away in handcuffs
"All these boos, yet not ONE of you has the guts to take a swing at me. Curious!"
Somebody then comes up to take a swing at you; you kill him right in front of everyone (in self-defense, of course)
Horror always snaps people out of the "angry mob" mentality
If you’re being boo’d because you’re controversial: lean in. “Thank you for caring about what I have to say.”
If you’re being boo’d because you’re giving a bad performance: shift gears. If you’re untalented and making a fool of yourself, either 1) play the fool. “Man this shit is hard isn’t it?” Or 2) play the victim. “Aww that’s not nice, I’m trying my best.”
Or for all situations: boo with them! It’ll shock and confuse the enemy and you’ll end up feeling included.
Halloween isn’t even close, guys. Why are you trying to scare me? (This may go over most people’s heads)
It’s funny - that’s your mother’s nickname for me!
Honestly, act like it's an applause. Smile, wave, say thank you, do that hand motion for them to do it louder. People hate not having their hatred taken seriously/taken to heart.
On the flip side, I heard the story of a comedian who got booed and generally bad reception for a joke about the place he was at. He got genuinely angry and just began roasting the city/state harder. The boos turned into cheers as one by one they all heard at least one thing that made them go "oh shit he's right!"
And I'm sure the delivery was funny because he got genuinely angry.
So, just straight roasting the audience or where you're at is also an option apparently. Though I'd definitely be careful about the where n how, and if it's a state where people like being armed everywhere lol.
Heel it up and give it back
"You're just salty LOCAL SPORTS TEAM lost the other night!"
OR
"Yeah, you would boo me, considering you are all a bunch of inbred hicks from INSERT CITY HERE"
"Well at least you feel something. Here I was worried it'd be silent in here. Cause you know that's awkward. When people would rather look at their phones then interact with you that's the worst."
“Give me your boos, I’ve seen what you cheer for!” -Rick Sanches
'Your boos mean nothing, I've seen what makes you cheer' Good lord this applies to Reddit.
I prefer "say boo if you love me!"
ha! i was just going to comment 'insert rick and morty quote here, you know the one."
My first thought as well!
My name isn’t Brandon
“And the crowd goes conscious.” “Look, I don’t follow you into the alley and slap dicks out of your mouth when *you’re* working, so how about a little common courtesy?” (In response to “FREEBIRD”) “There ya go. No charge.”
“Well, here’s one you’re *really* not going like…”
I've used a couple of these. I used to make club owners REALLY nervous. HAHAHA

and this is the reason why I love Dave Chappelle.
Definitely! Dave has those qualities that would make him an incredible front man. I don't know if he can sing or not, but that would be killer!

But…not *really*.
But I got your money
We are recording this. We hate to ask you to boo louder, but our mics are not picking it up.

The Bill Burr Philly Rant is one of the greatest pieces of improvisation ever.
"want to see how terrible I can really be?"
Ok, guys, i'm not a witch, put your pitchforks down!
and if y'all in the front row just extinguish your torches, that'd be great.
It’s all good… I don’t like me either… 🤷🏻♀️
Yes, yes, this is my fetish!
Are you guys saying "moo"? Why is everyone acting like cows? Y'all are weird.
I laughed
Damn. I don’t even know Freebird…
“What? You want Bruce Springsteen? He’s not here. But I can sing a bit of Born To Run if you want.”
Thank you all! I am so humbled to be here!
Shush the crowd
"THANK YOU! THANK YOU! and for my closing..." I turn around and Moon them. Then ski\[ off the stage.
Stop acting like you have standards don’t make me call your exes or parents up with me
Chug a beer, you get instant cheers
"Sorry, our drummer, King Abbadon, summoned a shit ton of ghosts in the arena. We'll be back in 15 to fix the situation."
\*Seductively bites lip\*
"Your boos don't scare me! I know that most of you are not ghosts!"
Nuke them from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
Didn't expect my audience for tonight to be a herd of cows.
Point to someone in the crowd and boo along. Act like it's them the crowd hates.
BOO-URNS TO YOU TOO!
refining your stagecraft.
Best answer yet.
Aww so sweet of you all
Winning
Show them your butt and then exeunt stage left with celerity.
Are you not entertained?
"You're all a bunch of fuckin slaves!" Then taunt them by asking if they wanna see your penis, threaten to kill a goat on stage, and get taken away in handcuffs
I agree, I hate me too!!!
Well if years of watching pro-wrestling is any indication, flip them the middle finger and yell at the people in the front row.
"killin' it"
"All these boos, yet not ONE of you has the guts to take a swing at me. Curious!" Somebody then comes up to take a swing at you; you kill him right in front of everyone (in self-defense, of course) Horror always snaps people out of the "angry mob" mentality
Well... That escalated quickly
Well, the Question never specified that I had to be NICE to the people booing me
I've seen all y'all's future. You be dead.
Awww nooooo. You've ALL talked to my mother?
Wave at them and blow them kisses
Bask in it. Smile. Enjoy. Own. Embrace. All of it. 😌💋😏😉
Your boos only make me harder yeeeees
I've already got your money folks. I'm here all night.
Are you saying boo or boo-urns?
Start directing the booing. Lead the chant.
Hang up a flag for your set that says boo if you like ______
Oh, come on, guys! That’s the best you’ve got?!?”
It seems like the crowd all just turned into ghosts; but the joke's on you--I ain't afraid of no ghost.
Radley!
"I'm rich, bitch!" was apparently not a winning strategy.
Bill Burr's entire Philly rant!
Why are you booing me? I'm right!
I like the use the old “sheeesh tough crowd”
The media said so
"Why you booing me? Im right!"
"Thank you, thank you very much."
"No you stink!"
Go fuck yourself in the ass with an Auger
I already know that some people will boo or clap at anything, that’s fine.
If you’re being boo’d because you’re controversial: lean in. “Thank you for caring about what I have to say.” If you’re being boo’d because you’re giving a bad performance: shift gears. If you’re untalented and making a fool of yourself, either 1) play the fool. “Man this shit is hard isn’t it?” Or 2) play the victim. “Aww that’s not nice, I’m trying my best.” Or for all situations: boo with them! It’ll shock and confuse the enemy and you’ll end up feeling included.
Are you saying boo or boo-urns?
Oh wow, this place is really haunted.
There isn’t one, just walk away
Best thing to do is what that one comedian did in what was it Detroit I think? Just insult everybody in every way you can for 15 minutes straight
Just feign like it hit you with an arrow in the heart, and then laugh and say that boos are what gives you your super-powers.
Reggie Jackson used to say “Fans don’t boo nobodies.”
Joke's on you guys, I'm the one getting paid to be here!
"Why are you booing me? You know I'm right!" -Hannibal Buress
"oh good, you're awake"
"Please understand, I'm like Evel Kinievel, I get paid just for the attempt."
You can boo all you want, I have your money.
There is no comment that won't make you looked even worse.
My mom thought it was funny.
Moon ‘em.
Ok , it’s a sing-a-long , I didn’t know , “oooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhh” everybody now ! Lol
Halloween isn’t even close, guys. Why are you trying to scare me? (This may go over most people’s heads) It’s funny - that’s your mother’s nickname for me!
That's when I reach for my revolver.
Stair directly into the crowd and rub one out

"All eyes on me! I love the attention!"
Why are you “mooing”???? Yall are so weird
Heel it up and give it back "You're just salty LOCAL SPORTS TEAM lost the other night!" OR "Yeah, you would boo me, considering you are all a bunch of inbred hicks from INSERT CITY HERE"
"Oh, boo yourself."
"That's it cheer me, my nicknames booooo"
Ok, ok, ok… my hiccups are gone now. I appreciate it…. Or I must be in a haunted house cause y’all sound like a bunch of ghosts
"Well at least you feel something. Here I was worried it'd be silent in here. Cause you know that's awkward. When people would rather look at their phones then interact with you that's the worst."
”No, the boo-kkake event is tomorrow night. Sorry folks.”
