0m32s Add “this would make for a great opium den”
3m04s Cut out this part of the joke and end it on “modern day Russia”
4m09s Add “how do” before “they know so young”
4m48s Playing off of what a comic said before
Overall: Weak. I need to try to bring the energy up when it’s low and not go lower energy than I already am.
Opening for a headliner at a college, about 60 in the audience

1m43s Do a little more crowd work there, or say another off the cuff line
2m18s Say the “maybe” angrier
3m48s Interesting that this laugh is bigger than “I remember being on the plane”
4m25s Think for an extra second before saying anything
7m11s Add a “no no no” before “I wasn’t gonna buy anything”
9m01s Could’ve done that a little earlier in the set
Part 2

1m07s I need a bombing save line there and I knew not to do the second half of the Netflix joke but then I got greedy
Overall: Very solid set especially considering I went up first without an MC. The second half of the Netflix joke and the voting joke both missed but the other 12 minutes hit real well. I need to work on those two jokes.

0m43s Maybe don’t say “stupid things” just focus on hating to wait in lines
1m22s Leave it as a one liner
1m48s Act more surprised to see him
1m59s Cut the MC Hammer stuff
2m51s Leave the joke after “modern day Russia”
3m45s Say the setup much clearer
Overall: Working out newer jokes, the yoga joke needs a lot more work while the others are getting closer
A 10pm show for ten or so people

2m59s If the waitress is taking drink orders from the table of six and there’s only ten people in the room, do crowd work until she’s done instead of working out the one joke I wanted to work out
Overall: The first joke and two jokes went well and there was dead space in the middle.

0m42s Much more effective version of this joke than last week
2m12s Rephrase to “what are you doing at a part in…”
4m02s Try “the newest madden”
4m48s I should say the donation line before the Kevlar line
Overall: Decent for a mic. The rewrites of the newer jokes are better but I still need to figure out the best way to do the yoga joke.
