But First, Some Comedy

From Rob:
The show was for a group of information technology programmers. They were about 200 or so of them, grouped in their cafeteria with a small stage at one end for us to perform on.

Before we got up there, the CEO took the stage and spoke in Dutch. After about two minutes of a weirdly restless but attentive audience, an audible groan of what I can only describe as disbelief roses. I asked our contact person for the show to translate what just happened.

"The boss just told everyone they're being let go next month. Hey, that's your cue. Good luck!"
