I promoted at several of Hollywood’s hottest clubs during a period of unemployment, mainly to see what all of the fuss was about. While it was fun and definitely had its perks, it also confirmed quite a few of the suspicions and stereotypes I’d previously held about how the industry works.
Small local bars don't usually use outside promoters
I wouldn't say it's your best bet. You should be focusing on places where the women are over 25 (when they are less looks focused) and where they might actually hear you when you say you're a surgeon. I suggest bars and restaurants.
Also I'd consider shaving your head. The half moon bay look isn't good.

Email flyers are popular. Hard flyers left on car windshields is another popular one amongst crappy clubs. My car looks like it's been through a parade with all the crap on it after a night in a hollywood parking lot.

Is it basically impossible for a skilled programmer to be out of work these days?
Networking usually. For the good ones at least. I've see bar/clubs post on craigslist for promoters. I imagine those places have metal detectors at the door.
