Going last at a music and comedy mic

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_e30DwloR8

6m56s Don’t say “it’s not a real thing”

8m29s Change “know what I’m talking about” to “know what I mean” because I said the former ten seconds ago

Part 2

0m52s Change the lines after “my grandma”

1m49s Change “impatient” to “tired of waiting”

Overall: Good for six people being there. I got consistent (but light) laughs throughout.

1m14s More emphasis on “that’s”

1m22s Stop treating “it’s really hard to raise a, dog” as a punchline

1m39s End sentence at “in a basement” no need for “for a couple of hours”

3m19s Better delivery on “that’s totally understandable”

3m31s It should be “comedian” not “cop”

4m57s End the joke on “grandma” or change the next twenty seconds

6m14s Try moving my whole arm and not bending at the elbow

Overall: Reworking some stuff, some of it needs work, a lot of it needs cutting.

MCing my Astoria show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_M3TAcXWIc

1m02s Add “you can actually share your food and we can all get full”

3m14s Try “there was no point to that except for that I wanted to stretch my hand”

6m51s Good job reading the audience

8m18s Try “that’s a shady thing for HER to say”

8m31s Add in “no wonder she doesn’t want to admit to dating you”

Part 2

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xK85BRjMmwI

0m49s I could add in “you’re like, “I can’t laugh because I’m still too shocked that I’m not in a relationship, but I approve”

Overall: Decent hosting. My whole “inept psychic” crowd work bit really hit today. I should try to push that and do it for longer at a time when I’m hosting.

0m40s It should be “Hey Jenny” not “hey”

1m30s Decent improvised lines

1m51s Try the line as “married people know what I mean”

3m03s Cut this line

4m51s It should be “Enjoy YOUR ride” not “the ride”

5m07s I missed the word “online” before survey

Overall: Keep rewriting the material.

Hosting the writer’s mic

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

2m53s Cut the agent line

3m17s Get to “castrate them” quicker

4m23s Change this set up to, “It seems that there’s more gay people now then there ever were. I think guys just…”

6m10s Change “like” to “are into”

6m26s No need for the grandpa line

Overall: Still reworking old jokes with new tags. They’re getting tighter but still need more rewriting.
