Performance Critique: April 24

Hosting a writer’s mic

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUZw1LC9A1c

1m40s I’m trying to say all the psychotic things in my normal voice

1m51s And it doesn’t flow right

2m33s This delivery is a one time experiment that doesn’t work

3m43s Change “knew” to “understood”

3m56s Say “this is me positive” without “being” and with the same tonality as my mom

Overall: Eh. I’m playing with different vocal tonalities for the crazy character, and my regular voice isn’t the right tonality.

The 8pm show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85Zezux02aI

1m18s I went a little too aggressive for no reason

3m33s Address the guy getting offended at coke heads more, could’ve gotten extra laughs

5m14s Don’t say “I know” unless someone gasps or reacts audibly

5m42s The puppies lines is funnier without a save line before it

7m14s She said “for you” that’s awesome

7m22s Keep milking it and talk to her more

Overall: Average to mediocre. I need to learn to embrace crowd interactions instead of get annoyed by them.

The 8pm show

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LBfXSbYW_4

0m11s Acknowledge the audience before starting, or stare at them until all the talking stops

0m45s Don’t stutter on store

2m08s Reword to “I probably shouldn’t have pointed at”

2m20s I’m not sure what he said, but I should’ve addressed it more

4m18s Go into the interruption more, even if it got a laugh

6m09s I should hit that line harder

8m27s Address it more and don’t talk over it

Overall: Mediocre set with a couple of big laughs in the middle. I should do a better job of addressing the talking.

An open mic for five or six comics

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

3m26s Change strangulation to piano

4m40s Change this punch line

5m29s Change twelve to dozens

Overall: Weak even for a mic. The less people watching, the more I have to start my set by talking to people instead of going into jokes.

Late night music and comedy

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JqHheBZS70

0m29s The guy before me was doing Tupac covers, it was funny

2m54s Guy said “that’s a lot of people”

8m57s Don’t do all the bombing material in a row, even if it’s at a mic

9m24s Try adding “I’ll shimmy my way into your dreams”

10m04s This needs to be considered an A joke

Overall: Really good set, newer material and rewrites went over well.
