An open mic

4m42s Decent response to the interruption

5m45s Cut the whole “joys of cooking”

6m14s Good job getting the last laugh

6m32s End the sentence with “that explains it”

Overall: The most interesting thing was my dealing with a couple of heckles.

A music and comedy mic

2m48s Stopping my statement was funny cause he was a tough looking dude

3m41s This line is a keeper in the rewrite

4m21s Get rid of the whole castration topic

6m20s Pause slightly longer before “war profiteering”

Part 2

0m49s More bass in my voice for “Tuesday”

Overall: Decent but not great.

A writer’s mic

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0zCBWJE-SE

0m09s Don’t comment on the MC messing up the intro, especially if it’s a mic. (Unless it’s really funny.)

3m21s Don’t repeat “stay loyal” twice

4m28s Shake the hips a little more

4m55s Cut the genetic line

Overall: Weak response even for a mic. The dogs joke needs more rewriting.

Going last at a music and comedy mic

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_e30DwloR8

6m56s Don’t say “it’s not a real thing”

8m29s Change “know what I’m talking about” to “know what I mean” because I said the former ten seconds ago

Part 2

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRz5IdxUkgo

0m52s Change the lines after “my grandma”

1m49s Change “impatient” to “tired of waiting”

Overall: Good for six people being there. I got consistent (but light) laughs throughout.

1m14s More emphasis on “that’s”

1m22s Stop treating “it’s really hard to raise a, dog” as a punchline

1m39s End sentence at “in a basement” no need for “for a couple of hours”

3m19s Better delivery on “that’s totally understandable”

3m31s It should be “comedian” not “cop”

4m57s End the joke on “grandma” or change the next twenty seconds

6m14s Try moving my whole arm and not bending at the elbow

Overall: Reworking some stuff, some of it needs work, a lot of it needs cutting.
