Performance Critique: April 15b

MCing the 8PM show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIdx76im7Yc

0m24s I should have them clap again after that intro and before I go into material

0m42s Eight to ten people walked in after it started, doubling the audience

1m42s The psychic stuff could’ve been more playful and less aggressive

2m24s More people walking in

2m31s I might as well ask them what their job is at that point

3m27s Could’ve gotten them clapping way earlier before this

3m35s Make it more playful to quiet them down

5m04s Call them out on bullshit that I’m right and do a little more crowd work

5m28s Don’t do this joke when the better jokes aren’t hitting

5m47s First decent laugh, ugh

8m34s The guy got to my punch line before I did, the downside of repeat audience

10m04s I need to respond with a “you look like _”

11m00s Try “device” instead of “devices”

Overall: Horrible. People kept walking in while I did my time upfront and I didn’t handle it well. They ordered loudly and I tried to address it but wasn’t able to control the room. My crowd work was unfunny and a little too aggressive. I need to really work on my MCing.
