Ever get stuck at a show that you really don't
want to be at?
Don't be grumpy. Applaud mediocrity, everyone has to
start somewhere.
When you clap at the right moments, others will follow
along.
Your enthusiasm may even pep up the show.
here are some of the tips

have confidence like me guys come on |
- Learn to clap loudly comfortably. Cup the palm of one hand and hit over the cup with the closed fingers of the other hand. This is similar to the clapping style of Flamenco dancers, and makes a soft popping sound.
- Try clapping when a new group or person enters the stage or someone finishes an introduction
- Clap every time someone finishes a trick, even if you weren't impressed
- Clap when someone messes up. Especially when they make a quick recovery.
- Clap after the band finishes a song. Even if you are the only one. Clap loud & proud. After about five songs of just you clapping the band might buy you a drink
- Now that you are generous clapper, when everyone else claps, you bump it up a notch with a 'Woo!' Or 'Oh, yeah!'. This can be used when a band begins your favorite song or your favorite part of the show begins (only do this in an appropriate situation, shouting at the ballet or opera is not the place to do so)
