Last night's crowd at the landing was tough. I tried too much new stuff in one set and did the joke about cancer that I am working on. Not surprisingly, it didn't really go over. I'm not sure if I can fake the enthusiasm and goofiness needed to sell the joke. I'm emceeing at the Landing this weekend; will probably stick to the rehearsed jokes and save the new ones for Monday.
I ran my cancer joke by some other comics at www.RoadComics.com. You can read what people have said (and what I replied) here.
