A music/comedy mic with 8 people
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IFGWFj0EwU
4m19s Say “Eddie Murphy” instead for a change in words
7m21s Hit “no guy does” harder
10m53s Good job incorporating an improvised line from the previous night
11m52s Try reversing the order of “that’s why I’m here” and “credits transferred”
Overall: Mostly weak response from the light crowd but I did a good job of fighting though and not losing my delivery or enthusiasm
Closing out the 9:30 show for 8 people

0m48s Great improvised line to someone else’s bit, too bad I can’t reuse it
1m58s There was a crazy audience member, but she left before I could have fun with it
4m20s Actually trying to talk about what happened two hours ago, without writing it first
6m48s Shouldn’t talk about this on stage, even if I think it’s true, won’t help anything
7m51s Decent improvised tag
9m08s Funny train of thought about why the wood chipper is a pain to use
9m28s I wonder if I can work this in as a bit, instead of a one time thing
12m23s After “all we have is each other” I should’ve gone with, “where’s that wood chipper?”
Part 2

0m30s Nice improvised call back
1m04s That’s a funny statement out of the blue
1m48s It should be “your friends” instead of “you”
3m27s Should’ve pointed how he didn’t deny them doing it the floor, that the pivoting was the false assumption in my statement
Overall: Great set. I think I improvised 10 or 12 minutes. I need to figure out how to be this relaxed and in the moment every time I’m on stage.
A music and comedy mic
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IAvlzht3EY
0m39s Try “now I understand how to apply that expression”
1m37s Say wood chipper at the start of the question
2m20s Good improvising / calling out the situation
3m40s Hard in this room, but be mindful of where the lighting is best
5m57s I can add “hold your applause”
7m45s Nice that the uncomfortable line works again
10m25s Decent double reaction, might be a smoother way to do it
Overall: Ok for a mic. Some stuff did better than others but there were some laughs most of the time.
Going up 2.5+ hours into a show with about 10 audience members left
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luaU2zAVuIo
1m45s Decent improvised save
2m45s “Hula hoop of despair” is good
4m56s At least the save line works
5m17s My air quotes look weird
Overall: Very weak set, but at least couple of new lines got a decent response.
MCing an open mic

0m28s Try “that finally explains how to make sen of the expression”
2m13s Say “too fast for me”
3m19s Say “here’s a newsflash” with more sarcasm
4m44s Say “upgrade” instead of “new one” and find a less mean way to make this point
6m16s Get the line smoother
Overall: Okay for a mic
