Whenever I check my email, I only have about 5 minutes before the people at Panera kick me out for not buying anything. That's why I am not often able to blog in my free time...
Monday night I emceed the Lloyd and Harry's show, and had a good set. I remember doing my Education Major jokes and Mike Howington was like "I like those, are they new?", to which I confessed they were not new, I just haven't done them in a while.
Tuesday (last night) I went up at the Bone; the crowd was small, but every responsive. Dano Sullivan emceed the show, which may have had something to do with it. My set was really good; and I got some cool advice from Gabe Kea on my email joke. I closed on it, and laughed at it myself after I delivered the final punch; and Gabe said it's too funny to do that. I don't need to "trick" the audience into laughing on that joke, and I shouldn't rush them by trying. It was cool advice, so hopefully I'll remember that next time I do it. I lead into the joke differently too, putting it after my [Nervous] and [Advice] bits. I usually put that at the beginning of my "bad with ladies" chunk, but I like it in the middle/end.
Check out my MySpace blog for jokes on which I'm working.
