Opening the Friday night show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSdl9uBjfTI

0m36s Not sure if the whispering works

2m04s Change “family” to “mom”

2m23s I’m a little too bent over

2m58s Weird that they didn’t laugh at “I remember being on the plane”

3m38s I messed up the line because I was already thinking about the next joke

5m05s Do a more husky voice for the man

5m30s I flubbed the line, it should be “but no situation ever warrants someone saying…”

7m15s Pause after “eye fucking”

Overall: Very mediocre. I was trying some new jokes and cut the length of existing jokes, so I was thinking about that more than being in the moment. I need to practice more before doing a new order in a short set, so that I don’t think about it during.

MCing a bar show

0m31s When a room is really weird looking and you’re up first, you gotta acknowledge it

4m37s This joke is really hit or miss

5m25s I need to change from a female voice to a male voice for part of this joke

5m37s They were Asian

7m27s I forgot to mention he gets paranoid, and that’s an important part of the premise

8m44s Say “them” not “em

Part 2: Doing a little time between comics

2m10s I should give this explanation at the start of the show

2m35s And I stopped doing material after this

Overall: My hosting up front was better than the material in between comics. I could’ve done my crowd work and actually talking to the audience, but then again, there were about 4 real audience members here…

Sunday writer’s mic

0m15s I could have just left it at socks

1m26s I need to add in “I’m making an exception for you”

2m58s I need to say “he’ll be like” before going into it

3m18s Don’t move my head, only my eyes for this character

Overall: I worked out some stuff. I need to mix in dark jokes with normal jokes, or it gets too predictable.

The Saturday night show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCwZIo0ZOs8

2m00s Doing the face and arm motion in the middle there is awkward

3m09s “Hire a hit man” doesn’t work, change the line back to “put a hit on my life”

4m48s The hair gel line isn’t that strong

Overall: Very solid set throughout. (In general, the better the set, the less comments I tend to have.) I got big laughs on most lines and medium laughs on most of the rest. The “hire a hit man” and “power of hair gel” lines need rework though.

A Saturday afternoon mic

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1PB-KFGR8E

1m10s I’m talking way too fast and not pausing for laughs

1m38s I delivered it really well, but don’t crack up after doing it

3m00s It should be “and I haven’t named our future children”

3m41s I should throw in “cause usually when you know you’re going home with someone, you start doing a little dance in your head, I’m gonna get some, la la la, la la”

4m14s Add in an address after her name

5m29s Great improvised meta-joke

6m33s That save line doesn’t make sense here

7m07s Instead of “that’s the same thing” it should be “that’s the same level of gift as”

Overall: I had a lot of fun doing this mic cause of the hosts complaint about everyone doing dark stuff before I got on stage, and then I started doing dark stuff. The Yale joke is working well, the tubes joke needs to be delivered slower, and the millionaire joke has potential but needs some fixing…
