I did a guest set last night at the Funny Bone. I hadn't even thought of getting on stage when I walked into the club, but Rahn Ramey was headlining, and he's taken a shine to me, plus he LOVES guest sets. It's not like I wasn't prepared. I always have an "open mic set" ready should something happen, and I did get to try out a new joke or two that I've been working on. I had to leave before the show ended, though, because I started to feel kind of sick; I ended up throwing up until about 4:30am and didn't get the best night of sleep...
Tonight at the Forum, I did a bunch of new stuff, and even though the audience wasn't the largest I had a good set. One group of about 6 in the center-to-stage-right side of the audience didn't respond too much, and one guy didn't even smile once. I even went a little blue during a couple parts, but I have a couple of new jokes that I'm really looking forward to playing-around with. The show got over in good time; we only had about 14 comics. I didn't hang around much because I'm hoping to call it an early night and get my strength back for when I have to go to work later this week. Hopefully I can trick my immune-system into working by tomorrow night or Wednesday morning...
