This is at a bar show, with an audience of five, half of whom were comics. I was the first comic up and the “MC” didn’t do any material

0m24s I tried transitioning from professor to model, this is not a transition I’ll be keeping
1m04s I should get rid of the Clay Aiken line
1m22s The girls gone wild line needs to go too
1m41s There was only one girl in here, and she was with her boyfriend so I went with my old version of the tubes joke so it wouldn’t get overly awkward
2m32s I need to reevaluate this joke
4m14s I need a punch line after “intolerant”
5m35s I decided I should do MC like crowd work
6m03s Not sure why I looked over at a guy for “cause you know I don’t need that shit” – that’s a recipe for no laughs
6m42s My snuggle slut joke hasn’t been working well, so I tried to take the part of it I found funny and combine it with the clown story… this is a work in progress
7m54s I didn’t learn this guy was a comic until a minute after this exchange later
Part 2

0m14s At least I left on a laugh
0m18s This room has each comic bring up the next comic to minimize the chances the audience leaves between comics
Overall: While it’s very hard to kill in a room of five people, I was pretty bad. I was told to treat this place as a workout room and that’s what I did: I combined my existing jokes in new ways and tried some newer stuff. The audience was low energy when I got on stage, so I decided to have slightly more energy than them, but not to get all crazy high energy (high energy level for me anyway). This was a mistake.
