Performance Critique: August 1b

Going up about 3 hours into the show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBsu1P6ogZc

1m50s Don’t go up on “alcoholic”

4m25s A save line should be used by now

4m39s Really should’ve done this type of crowd work earlier

Overall: Weak set. When going up this late, do more crowd work to start.

An open mic

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWNVkuXO1ak

1m50s Instead of “talk about her” say “that I do impressions of her”

3m23s Push the DVD harder

4m43s Work on this part of the joke, there’s something here

5m52s Do this line way earlier, before the alimony stuff

6m18s Try to find a joke to finish that premise

Overall: Standard mediocre mic response. Working on newer stuff.

Doing a check spot

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drmVXNjp0cQ

0m48s Point if leaning forward like that

1m10s Lean forward on this one if I lean forward on the first one

5m35s Cut the “sounds like you have the same degree” line

6m01s Time the pointing to coincide with “neuro divorce”

Overall: Ok for checks.

Hosting the writer’s mic

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

0m42s Do a mom bit before saying she hates the impression of her

2m33s Pause after “so you’re out of the hospital”

3m58s Cut or rework the morally bankrupt hero thing

Overall: Working out newer stuff. Mediocre mic response.

Performance Critique: July 30

Doing a longer set on the 8pm show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFesx5v3f3A

4m58s Deliver “god I hope this works” in a more worried manner

5m20s The idea is there, the wording is terrible

6m01s Delivery sounded forced on that line

6m26s Tilt my head up higher

8m02s Hold my leg on the hammy line

9m29s Don’t screw up the line

9m39s Say two minutes not twenty seconds

10m57s Don’t address the polysci majors thing unless it’s a big laugh

12m14s Really funny improvised play off of what happened in the room

15m09s Be more direct “you’re my favorite audience member” instead of “he’s my number one fan”

15m46s Mess with him for that weird non answer

16m20s Lean forward on “get tested”

Overall: Consistent small laughs but not enough huge laughs.
