Deadpoet’s Cave

I call it as I see it. This interesting snippet is from Monday’s Life! section:

You know comedian Russell Peters is hot when, even without any publicity, his October show here sold out within days…

Perhaps, people here have had an online taste of the 35-year-old’s humour which sees him taking wickedly witty potshots at racial stereotypes, complete with accents and actions.

And judging by the hundreds of thousands of downloads of his stand-up routines worldwide, it would seem his star can shine only brighter…

Peters is naturally chuffed at the ticket sales, and says it is all down to someone putting his routines online.

So you can make money by giving away your stuff (inadvertently) making your stuff freely available online.

You just have to be good; people will pay for live quality entertainment.
