Bombed hard last night for the first time. Like, genuine silence. How do you experienced comics shake it off and get back up?

Everyone bombs. The trick is to not take the room personally — sometimes the crowd is just wrong for you. Book the next gig immediately so you don't dwell.

Been there. It gets easier. The best comics have all died on stage — it's a rite of passage.
