Performance Critique: December 16a

This is me MCing an open mic

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKi-zzp1BgM

0m24s I’m not being conversational right now

0m38s No need for the “heaven” tag

0m50s But I’m still gonna do it

1m20s The efficiency joke needs to be tried on a real audience

1m45s I think the “we fight injured children” might work better as a sketch for a bad grammar advertising agency

2m04s That’s just a premise about mutual enemies, I need an actual joke there

2m52s It’s less wordy to say “When drinking gets in the way of your job, so you quit work”

3m09s I need a long pause between “neuroeconomics” and “I don’t know what the hell that means either”

3m32s Going too fast for this whole skit

4m08s This joke needs work, I haven’t been able to practice my material out loud because I’m couch surfing

4m45s There’s a funnier way to get that same house dad point across

5m02s I decided to do one joke I know works to see the maximum laughs I could get, this isn’t really a useful strategy for the end of a set

6m04s I could’ve done this slower, paused and gotten a laugh

Overall: I could’ve probably addressed the comics hating me and waiting for me to get off stage less often. The threesome efficiency joke is ready to be tried on a real audience and the fighting injured children bit needs to become a sketch instead of stand up.
