Performance Critique: September 13b

Late night, two plus hours into a show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Y1jkWsZXDk

2m22s It took them an extra second to get it, good job waiting for it

3m52s Acknowledge the “cmon”

3m57s I need a better way to go into this joke

4m51s Face the audience during the act out

5m21s Use different hands for me and Sandeep

Overall: Great set, especially considering how much comedy the crowd had heard by that point. Of course, there’s still some adjustments to be made.

A mic

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqtt08jXmjQ

2m14s Change notch and the winning formula lines

2m48s Change neuro-habitate to something else

3m05s Try “cause I used to sell THEM fake…”

5m25s This joke still isn’t working

7m09s I can try going straight to, “No Nick, since I unfriended you, I don’t have to pay rent, cause you’re not Facebook official” or something like that

8m47s Say “talked about” instead of “did this”

Overall: Decent for a mic but I need to figure out the mobile adoption center joke.

Hosting the Sunday writer’s mic

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDQe52Fay3A

1m30s I need to figure out a way to make this joke funny, I think the setup is off

2m33s Change neurocomic to something else

Overall: The mobile adoption center still needs to hit and my neuro examples could use some work

The 8pm show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7cihw37JcRs

3m22s The pinky and eyebrow raise is funny

6m21s The fundraiser line is a good improvised line

6m31s The start to this joke is weird

8m28s If they laugh really hard, I don’t need to do the motion

9m29s The iPhone app part of this joke needs to be rewritten or killed

Part 2

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

1m15s The DVR joke needs to be funnier

1m27s Say “it’s the Netflix plan” not just “Netflix plan”

Overall: Very solid set. The the iPhone part of the Yelp joke needs fixing as does the DVR joke, but everything else is solid.

MCing a midnight show in the basement of a bar

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIX027g0KhY

0m38s I should say “Florida isn’t much better than Detroit”

1m08s Say “Hi ladies” before the disappoint twice line

4m07s Address the girls yelling in the background

4m15s Good job shifting back to crowd work after a joke didn’t go great

6m05s Mixed up the “you” and “her” terms, but it still worked

Part 2

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6v6uVZjpwgM

0m07s I could’ve played that Cliff doesn’t start with a “K”

3m01s Comment on the words getting stuck that just happened

3m31s Instead of “I did this” say “I talked about this”

Overall: Good job mixing in crowd work with material while hosting, but I could’ve done more crowd work towards the end. The last five minutes I only did material and I should try to engaged the audience more.
