0m49s Get rid of “all you need is a bed”

2m27s Kill the “hategasm” tag

5m01s Kill the “lottery ticket” tag

Overall: Working out material at a mic

A lounge show

0m29s Hold the “what the hell” look for longer

1m12s Figure out a way to stay in the spotlight while doing the act out

2m45s Sell the modeling poses more

3m17s Change “Elton” back to “Jesus”

4m20s Pause for another half second after “Ugh, mom”

5m38s Rephrase from “drag people off the streets” that’s confusing

6m46s Say “he booked me here tonight” more playfully

7m38s This show asks that everyone performs a Haiku

Overall: Decent but some bits hit a lot harder than others, and I should never write poetry.

1m00s I should do roasts

3m49s Good job being in the moment and realizing what I did and then calling it out

4m45s Go back to the handjob motion for this, maybe wave before doing it first

Overall: Good job the first minute addressing the situation in the room and making fun of what happened earlier. Combining the yelp and Netflix jokes makes sense, but needs to be worded a little better.

Doing a regular spot at my show in Queens

0m26s Say “Hey girls” before that line

1m07s Hold the “what the fuck look” for longer

5m17s Remove word “your”

5m54s Drop down lower on the fake donkey

7m11s Do a stronger act out

7m51s Good job going along with the word stumble

8m10s Get rid of the Zeus inc tag

8m49s Good call back

9m33s Great crowd work, as usual good improvised crowd work gets bigger laughs than any material

Part 2

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1Og1wOF5Is

3m14s Sell the “what the hell” look harder

5m28s No need for “that’s bullshit”

Overall: Respectable set, the crowd work went over really well, I just gotta figure out how to do that consistently.

Late night with the few remaining audience members, after the regular show ended

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ru-EfM9Zsc

2m37s Do more poses

3m04s Change “Fabio” to “Jesus”

3m48s Get rid of “your” in the sentence

4m03s Shorten “when did” to “when’d”

5m19s I need a stronger save if this joke doesn’t hit because it is a political joke

Overall: Except for the junkie actor joke I did well, especially considering it was 2.5 hours into the show
