Hosting an open mic

httpv://youtu.be/NhIeRFRgJSU

0m36s Look all the way up, all the way down, and all the way back up

3m15s Shift tonality harder on the “but”

4m27s Consider saying “oww”

Overall: Average weak mic response

Hosting the writer’s mic

2m38s He should go back to frowning after each positive line

Overall: Ok for a mic

The 10pm show

httpv://youtu.be/eLDOTvGej1Q

0m11s Addressing the non stop talking situation of a couple in the audience

2m43s Have the mom moving left to right while pausing between lines

4m32s Good job addressing the situation

5m08s She admitted it to the MC, it wasn’t me making it up

6m29s Cut the unconditional love line

7m40s Checks getting dropped right around now

8m34s Usually I’d acknowledge checks as soon as they were dropped, but I was trying to time out a set

9m45s Nice touch being able to point to the chatty couple for that

10m26s Don’t repeat “here” say “New York” instead

Overall: Good set, I did a good job handling the interruptions.

The 8pm show

httpv://youtu.be/0tg7yIS4iPc

0m55s Have her look all the way up first

1m57s If an applause starts, wait for it to die down before doing the disappointdar sound

4m41s Good job addressing it

4m57s I could’ve gone into it more like “I’ll never cheat on you, unless the guy wears a green shirt” but was trying to do a specific set.

5m31s Can cut it down to “cause I sold”

6m32s The unconditional love line doesn’t hit that hard either

9m25s I can end the sentence at “online petition”

Overall: Great set.

Going up at 3am at a music and comedy mic

httpv://youtu.be/TUfeFgqoPBY

0m46s The hand gesture for “staring at me” shouldn’t be at my stomach

5m35s Pause if there’s a laugh on the “oww”

6m07s Cut or change the haircut line

8m27s I didn’t look up and then look down. Gotta repeat the same motion as at the start.

8m40s End the line on “poetry reading”

Overall: Up and down set, lost them in the middle and the callback didn’t hit.
