Occasional very short patter is OK. If the set up for a punch line is long, it better be a very good punchline. I don't usually like hearing why someone wrote a song. A very long intro or dedication makes me want to say, "Sing already." I feel the same no matter who is singing. Famous or unknown. It's all the same. My two exceptions to this is the late Victor Borge and Tom Lehrer. I love to hear their patter.
