December is a good time to have few restaurant gigs. It means you will have more time available for private parties.

They are for me. I've turned down a bunch already, and have two, back to back, tonight.

Same here. I raised my price, and I'm turning away gigs.
I guess it all depends on where you live. I'll bet that the plethora of magicians hasn't helped some markets, though.

I guess it does depend on where you live. I'm having my busiest holiday season, ever.

Things waited for me until the last minute. The two shows I did tonight (saturday evening actually) happened this week! It seems that a lot of people are putting things off until the very last minute when it comes to entertainment this year.
Really, really odd. Lee Darrow, C.H.

Reading how some of you are doing OK this Christmas fills me with even more woe. Woe for my family and friends and also the families of my friends. We are going to have a very small turkey this year

Maybe it's time to change gigs. Sometimes a Holiday season will send you a message like that. A friend of mine in Indiana has been having a gangbusters season.
Have you given any thought to changing the focus of your material? Or your venue? Sometimes a market gets glutted.

While December did not look great going in, it ended up just fine due to last minute shows that kept getting booked.
I think that one thing about this December is worth mentioning. We lost two weekends of work due to Christmas & New years falling on Fridays. This will happen again next year as well. Over all I still had a great month, not like year 2000 and prior, but still good. |
