Performance Critique: June 05b

I MCed this show. The entire audience was one group of 8 or 10 very energetic and chatty women.

0m43s Between watching this and the last clip, my delivery changes when there’s actual energy in the room. I need to find a way to generate my own energy regardless of the audience.

1m46s I love how one of the women responds with “I agree”

3m14s Yes I realize (after the fact) that “de-dignifying” is not a word

3m54s I love how she’s still responding to everything I say, “Alright, got it”

4m09s I tried throwing in the bearded lady line in future sets, it didn’t work

4m39s Normally I’d stop if the audience says something and address it, but when they’re this chatty, I just keep talking unless it’s really necessary to quiet them down

6m04s Nice philosophical discussion on the merits of snuggling

Overall: I had fun hosting this crowd because they were energetic and chatty, but not chatty to the point where you can’t do a single joke. Like I mentioned toward the top, I need to find a way to generate my own energy even if the crowd doesn’t have it.
