Performance Critique: April 28

This is back in DC. I hosted the show. There were 3 audience members.

0m50s I didn’t notice they were audience members, but once I did, I started doing all my jokes for them and ignoring the heckler

1m13s When it’s a mostly male audience, I won’t open with the “he’s a comic, he should be a model” line 

1m39s Point down at the floor when I say “this”

2m12s Not bad for on the spot, if I may say so myself 

2m44s Keep my hand in the “cupped” position for the repetition of “that takes balls” 

3m49s This is what it would sound like if I wrote all my jokes on stage 

4m25s I may need a better comeback than “you’re special” for when someone has a dog with reproductive organs and feels the need to share it 

5m08s First time trying this line… didn’t work, it messes up the flow 

5m45s I need a longer pause between “third time this week” and “a dog was…” 

6m11s That cracked me up re-listening to it even if noone else laughed 

7m23s That is the most pimping answer someone can give 

7m57s Get rid of the “you’ve never seen stand up” line 

8m22s The “she gets the remote” line just doesn’t cut it 

9m33s It could work to find an audience member and address them to start the joke: “you look like a pimp. You know when a girl says “lets go over my place…”” 

I don’t know where the rest of this clip went 

Part 2

I did a joke in between the comics

1m00s Stronger tone on “office”

1m38s I missed saying “that also kills with the republicans”

Overall: Considering it was a three person audience, and two of them were sitting forty feet away, I killed. The best takeaway from this set (which I only got while reviewing it for the blog) is to try addressing that someone looks like a pimp during my “snuggle slut” closing joke.
