gimme mine

I did end up trying out my four new jokes tonight. Of the four, I think the lightening one has the best chances of surviving into my normal act. I can see it fitting into my "style" (or what I think my style is right now) better than the others. I went up first and probably would have done WAY better had I not been concentrating on the new stuff. Not that I didn't have a good set, I just didn't command the stage like I did last week. Anyway, the show lasted a long time and I stuck around until the end and am back home late, so I need to get to bed. Adam has ballots to vote on how the show should be run in the future (15 comics at 4-5 min. each Vs. 20 comics at 3-4 min. each). Either way is cool, there are pros and cons to each. I voted for the shorter list, simply because it gives a chance to work with a longer set, and if enough people stick to their time (or go under) Adam could throw up extras. I know some people gripe about having a defined list of performers and cutting people out, but it's simple Supply and Demand. There's a need for stage time, and Laughs wants to have a good show, so they can do what they want. Besides, most of the people who complain aren't at Lloyd and Harry's (or weren't at the old Bistro shows) so I don't see why they would be upset at a "lack" of stagetime.
