What type of comedy can audiences expect from Brian Bates at the Luminary Hotel & Co. shows?
**Interview with Brian Bates Ahead of His Comedy Shows at Luminary Hotel & Co.**
**Editor:** Hi Brian! It’s great to have you here as we look forward to your performances at Luminary Hotel & Co. on January 11. Can you tell us what audiences can expect from your shows?
**Brian Bates:** Thank you for having me! Audiences can look forward to a night filled with relatable humor and lots of laughter. My style is very down-to-earth; I love sharing stories from my life that resonate with people. I want everyone to feel like they’re part of the experience.
**Editor:** That sounds fantastic! I see that you’ve performed at some notable venues like the Grand Ole Opry and had specials on Dry Bar Comedy. How do those experiences shape your performances today?
**Brian Bates:** Performing at those venues has been incredible. The Grand Ole Opry, in particular, is a legendary stage, and it really pushes you to bring your A-game. Those experiences taught me a lot about pacing and presence on stage, which I’ve carried into my current shows. Each performance is a chance to connect with the audience, and I take that very seriously.
**Editor:** Your upcoming shows are at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. on January 11. Do you have a preference for which time you enjoy performing more?
**Brian Bates:** Honestly, I enjoy both shows! The early show tends to have a little more energy since it’s the first one, but the late show has its own vibe with the audience being a bit more relaxed. It’s like having two different experiences in one night!
**Editor:** You’ve garnered a following with your appearances on SiriusXM’s LaughUSA and your specials. How important is it for you to connect with your audience outside of live performances?
**Brian Bates:** It’s very important. Social media and platforms like SiriusXM allow me to reach people who might not be able to see me live. I love hearing feedback from fans and sharing snippets of my life with them. It creates a fellowship of sorts, making the live experience more special.
**Editor:** That’s wonderful to hear. Lastly, is there anything you want to say to potential attendees before your shows?
**Brian Bates:** Definitely! I want to invite everyone to come out and enjoy a night of laughter. Whether you’re a long-time fan or just curious about what I do, there’s something for everyone. Let’s have a great time together!
**Editor:** Thank you so much for your time, Brian! We can’t wait to see you on January 11 at Luminary Hotel & Co.
**Brian Bates:** Thank you! See you all there!
