Going last on the 8PM Show for a small audience

0m28s It was a guy who clapped

0m44s Should’ve skipped past that line after it got so interrupted, or rewind back to “hi girls” first

2m44s Answer my own “what were the odds of that?” question with “one hundred percent”

6m35s I need a better response after I lure them in to yell out “do it”

Overall: Mediocre set. It didn’t help that half of the twelve people didn’t pay their bill until I was six minutes into my set.

3m14s I tried a new line here, it didn’t seem to work

4m02s Put my hand on my face first, like I’m really concentrating

Overall: The set got stronger as I went on. The voting joke still isn’t consistent.

The 8pm show

2m48s Don’t go up at the end of the sentence, it shouldn’t sound like a question

3m48s Weird that both the plane and baggage check lines missed

4m28s Sell the “ugh mom” better

5m06s Since I said “just don’t let it happen again,” I should’ve started doing the impression again to test her

7m10s That whole joke missed for the first time in a while

8m04s Good save after two straight jokes missed

Part 2

Overall: I had a good first six minutes and a good last minute and a half and I muddled about for six minutes in between.

A 6:30 Show

0m20s Should’ve added, “how would you like to go there tonight”

3m12s Nice improvised line from watching the audience

3m47s Repeat what her sound sounded like, then guess at what other times she makes that sound

4m51s I should call out how it’s funny that she apologized after I asked them to do it

7m20s I need a few extra words after calling them racist, like “everyone knows that…”

Overall: Average set. The voting joke missed but the other jokes worked fine.

An open mic

4m23s Use the word “mechanics” in there

5m20s At least the “audience” is engaged now

Overall: Working out newer jokes at a mic. The heaven idea might have some legs.
