This is for an audience of 7

0m20s I watched the last two minutes of the comic before me, and came up with a couple of observations to start the set with. This seems to work better than going straight to jokes
1m03s After forty seconds, I go into actual material
2m03s 6 of the 7 audience members were women
3m10s After “we’ll pretend we don’t know each other” I should’ve added “then we’ll meet up around 2am”
3m25s I’m happy the suicide joke is working with women, I was concerned it might not work
3m45s Well that third joke of suicide isn’t working, but that can be fixed
4m36s She said something about pot
4m51s Better response, “I’m not your waiter”
6m25s I think the Russian family joke failed because I mentioned a response of my mom without an accent before getting into the Russian family material, and that confused the crowd
6m31s At least I didn’t go back to Russian jokes after the first part failed
7m30s I should think of different ways of saying “fall in love” so I can keep coming back to it without it getting stale
Overall: I need to be careful about responding as my mom before setting up that she has a Russian accent, or if that occurs, don’t do the Russian accent for the whole set. Also, the first two parts of my suicide joke are getting a strong response.
