Jerry crushed when he came to Baton Rouge

Was it on a tour, where he delivered a 90 minute polished act?

Or did he drop in unexpectedly at the local Yuck Yuck Hut to do a few minutes of new material?

The prior poster was talking about the latter situation, which is how many comics work out new material before a tour or special. It's hit or miss whether it will be any good. I've heard comics talk about Richard Pryor doing late-night spots at The Comedy Store and being awful, but there might have been one little gem in there that in six months or so was polished up and became killer.
