Performance Critique: September 12

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

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.

The 8pm show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cKTLbP25F8

0m22s Call out the “woo” more, like “why are you proud of that?” or something

1m35s Good job on dealing with the disruption

4m08s Nice improvised line

5m29s Don’t do a third mom joke when the first two barely got laughs

Overall: Bad set. I got interrupted once and addressed it well but then I continued with my mother material when it was clearly not working, I should’ve tried switching topics earlier

A Friday 6:30 show for ten or fifteen people

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCFfl0BnTbc

2m49s Weird that the plane line completely missed when everything else is hitting

4m47s I improvised “cash only”, I should keep it

6m36s Call out the girl that wooed on it

7m11s Extra explanation of DVR didn’t lead to extra laughs

8m59s Turn to the side for “second door on your right”

Part 2

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4njCXzQ_ms

1m17s Learn to save my closer for the last joke instead of doing it earlier, otherwise I won’t end as strong as I can

Overall: Solid eleven minute set, the DVR relationship joke needs work and the neuro joke still needs some tweeking
