make sure you dont fall into the trap of copying existing routines. The Daniels confidence routine for example ( which i believe was either bought, or gifted to Doug Henning .. see youtube)
I find that most of the standard gags work, " no hole, except the ruddy big one in the middle.. that kind of thing.
Cheesy yes.. butthey get a laugh.
Look also at Richard Ross. A clasical linking ring routine, with some touches of comedy thrown in.
Vernons rings can be seen here.....

the late, great Richard Ross...... ( I adored this act more than i can say!!)
he gets the laughs, without telling a joke.. its all in the face, and body.

Galina.. ok nothing funny. But if a linking rings act can get you slightly sexualy aroused, its always worth sharing..
