0m16s No need for that start, I’m the only one who’d find that funny

1m22s Try “Barrack Obama” instead of “The New York Times”

2m07s Repeat his “okay” before “that could be kinda fun”

3m16s Instead of “always stay loyal to us” it should be “ONLY stay loyal”

3m45s Deliver this line seductively

3m52s This line doesn’t make sense here

5m45s Cut this whole girl at party story

7m05s Instead of “everything is great after that” I can say “it’s gonna be a fantastic year”

8m11s Smile a little while doing the poem

0m38s Only sing the first line of the song, no need for the parody

0m55s Do the guard pole motion multiple times

Overall: I’m reworking some older jokes, and they still need work.

BINGO! For New and Hacky Comics

I thought this up while sitting through a more painful than usual open mic. It’s meant as a joke, but can serve as a reminder for all of us to avoid the easy jokes.

In the past year I’ve definitely done 4 out of the 5 topics, and 2 out of the 5 bombing jokes (and probably other squares I’ve forgotten about), so I’m not claiming to be better than anyone…

An open mic with five comics in the audience

0m58s Doesn’t make sense to do this if I haven’t done material yet

2m28s Tighten the wording here

2m40s Commit to the harness yank act out

3m17s Say this more seductively

4m18s No need for the word “personally” in that sentence

5m01s Cut the medusa head / web of hair lines

5m33s Keep cutting the material up to here

6m31s Get to this line much quicker

7m10s Stagger backwards first, then fall towards the floor

8m00s Reword this setup

8m16s Pause between “just enjoy the ride” and “the scream machine”

Overall: Worked out some new tags on some old jokes, and most of the new tags need to be cut.

2m19s Interesting how that’s the biggest laugh of the joke

2m52s Say “you’re right” at the start of the sentence, not the end

8m00s Nice improvised line

Part 2

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z17va6KYcq8

0m39s “This” meaning there only being six people there

1m53s Stay on the ground until the laughs stop

5m50s Cut the “airhole” line or revise it

6m55s Good job slowly selling the impression and then bailing

7m32s Decent idea of a boxing coach as a joke

Overall: It was good for what it was and I had fun.

2m13s This new save line is three for three

5m14s Don’t say “thanks” afterwards if I’m going to say “I’ll leave you guys on this” as the joke

Overall: Working out new and interconnected bits. New Years joke still needs work. And the dogs joke can be expanded.
