Saturday at Laughs with Bill, Dan and Jeremy

The two shows with Dan Swartwout and Bill Arrundale couldn't have been more different. The 8 O'clock show had a crowd size of about twenty people, and they were very talkative and didn't really pay attention to the show. It was kind of frustrating. Janine and Lauren came down for the show. The second show was much better, there were probably three to four times the audience members. I felt like my set went better, and I switched up my material a little bit. I tried to change eat set a little, although I kept the same opener and closer and I think I did my ski material during each show. Jeremy Essig stopped by and did a spotlight, which was pretty cool. The crowd really seemed to like him. Both Bill and Dan had great sets also. The weekend was pretty cool, and I was really excited to get to meet and work with Bill and Dan. They had mentioned doing an on location recording for one of their next episodes, but I was exhausted and so we didn't have a chance. Maybe I'll get to up to Ohio and I'll have a chance then, then I can prove-disprove any rumors about the plush Swarty.com studios.

if it's too loud, you're too old

Last night I got to emcee at Laughs on the landing for Bill Arrundale and Dan Swartwout. I was really excited as I'm a big fan of their podcast, the Bill and Dan Show. We did two shows, 8 and 10 pm, and both were good. The first show had about 60 people in the audience, and I had a really good set comedicaly but I got tongue tied and forgot Dan's credits when i was bringing him up, which made me feel kind of unprofessional. The second show we had about 15 people, maybe 20, and a couple minutes into my set, a large group came in and sat down stage left. They were really talkative as they sat down, but instead of loosing my concentration and getting lost, I just upped my volume a bit and continued with my set. The rest of the audience still seemed to pay attention dispite the distraction, and so I felt like I learned something really cool last night.
