Last night's shows in Little Rock were very different from each other. The first show was great, the audience really seemed to get the subtle stuff. My set wasn't the best in the world, but I had a good time because the crowd was laughing at stuff the rest of the audiences didn't like/get. The third show of the night was like pulling teeth, that audience had really low energy and it made for a less enjoyable time on stage.
Somewhere throughout the week I realized something about myself. I'm hardly ever happy with a set, even when I get compliments from audience members and other comics. I guess I'm only happy with the kind of sets that make for good demo tapes. Maybe I'm a perfectionist or maybe I'm just looking for a new demo...
