I got on stage second to the end last night. Throughout the night, the audience had shrunk a bit, which was ok, because the rude, talkative bunch in the "VIP" lounge area left or something. I opened with my Lightening joke and performed some mid-flight recalculations verbage-wise. I should listen to the audio, because I liked how it sounded. I think I followed that with a joke about the Federal Meth-offenders list (new) and a joke comparing my office-job to prison (also new, thank you very much). Then I did some nervous-with-ladies jokes. I felt it was pretty good for being so near the end, especially since I had new material. The prison joke is kind of big, and I actually did it from memory, which made me happy. I need to start thinking about my emcee set for Southbend Wednesday, and I'm wondering what I'll be doing in Milwaukee; they have a guy who is strictly announcements, then an opener (5-7-10) and the feature and headliner. I hope I open, because I'd get to work on material, but if I do announcments, that wouldn't be a waste.
