It depends on the open mic. Most of the ones around here are attended primarily by musicians and the people they bring. You can get some "fans," sort of, but it's really more like a club of people who support each other - much like a Star Trek convention. smile

But I also like trying out new material at an open mic. You can usually tell when people are clapping to be polite and when they really dig something.
