Yesterday was my last night in Milwaukee; and the shows were a lot of fun. JD had me make sure that I mentioned it was Sweetest Day, which apparently a big deal in Milwaukee and always falls on a Saturday (he said it was even bigger than Valentine's Day). First show, I did up front what I had previously done upfront AND between Jamie and Murv. That's kind of hard to describe in a sentence so; if I did jokes "A" before Jamie, and "B" between Jamie and Murv, then tonight I did "A" and "B" before Jamie and had to find something else to do before Scott. I pulled out the PhoneSex joke, and it went over well. The other three guys all had good sets and it made for a really fun show. Second show, Eric let me do all my time up front, which I was really excited about, but I couldn't really tell if I was doing well, since I couldn't hear the audience laughing. The door guys and Murv all told me I did well, so I'll believe them. During the last show, Eric grabbed Murv to pay him, and I figured he'd send Murv up to get me (I didn't figure they'd want me in the office at the same time) but Eric had actually asked me to go to. So apparently the door guys and Eric decided to play a little joke and tell me Eric left. Howard even asked me for my address so they could mail me a check. JD told me Eric was around, so I went to the office and he wasn't there. I went back up stairs, no Eric. They sent me back down stairs, and I asked the waitresses where Eric was and they said he was just there. I even looked under the desk in the office incase Eric was hiding there. Eventually I found him, and he paid me, which was cool. I was cool that the staff felt like they could joke around with me. After the show, Duke told me I did a good job and it was a pleasure to have me there. I told him I enjoyed being at the club and had a good time. I'm really looking forward to going back.
