Performance Critique: January 23

This is a bar show in Staten Island. There was a 10 person audience

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

0m23s I made a joke based on a host’s joke

1m42s Weird that 4 punch lines in a row missed after the “cancel relationship” got a big laugh, but good job pausing just the same

4m21s His parents were in the audience, so I acknowledged it

5m01s This is a good save line I’ve recently started using

5m44s Fun little rant

5m56s It’s okay to say that because he’s my friend

6m33s Awesome how rewinding time actually worked

7m33s Part of that joke is that we don’t get paid

8m05s No need to say “websites” and “online”, that’s redundant

Part 2

1m32s I’ve brought this joke back but with a more surprising setup, and it seems to work better

3m12s This could be clearer

3m18s The sentence “while she’s taking the pill” should go before “don’t write this joke”

4m52s These fifteen minutes really did go by quickly

5m30s I don’t recommend playing “request a joke line” to close your set

6m54s High quality

6m58s The show was called “The Rodney Kings of Comedy”

Overall: This was the first time I tried to consciously not smile while delivering my jokes. I felt it worked and I was enjoying trying not to laugh. I couldn’t help laughing sometimes, but I’m really working on not doing a big smile after every joke. Considering there were only ten people in the audience, the show went pretty well.
