Comedy is such a roller coaster. The reason I quit poker was because of the emotional toll it takes on you, but as I've blogged about before comedy is the same way. At least when I do terrible it doesn't cost me money. Although I'd almost prefer losing money in poker than bombing on stage. I bombed last Saturday and I wanted to quit comedy. I got drunk and played poker, lost 100$ and it barely affected me. SO many nights in the past I got drunk and lost way more, one night I even lost 4000$ online playing drunk poker. It seems bad, but I should have been up that money. I played head ups against a guy, and he made an amazing call, that he should never have made, and if he folds there, I'm up 6k.
Anyways my Winston set went really well. I did all old jokes, and they are pretty perverted. That crowd loves nasty. I haven't wrote a new joke in awhile but I thought of a good premise tonight and will write it in the coming days. I'd give tonight's set a B++.
On other notes my Tuesday spot, Brick by Brick is not doing comedy anymore. That kind of sucks, it was a good comic hang out. I can understand why they canceled the comedy, it was a really bad spot and it was basically a comic crowd.
I'm going to try to start attending a weekly open mic at a place that has a mostly music open mic. A few of the smarter comedians I enjoy go there and I need another place to get 10 minutes. I normally hate mostly music open mics, but this place has a clean comedy rule and that's up my alley.
I asked for a dude comics number tonight. It felt kind of weird. I'm so bad at making male friends, and putting people in the "give me your number" spot isn't something I enjoy. He gave it to me but I think he was a little weird worried. He kind of Hollywooded me by saying "You don't have my number yet?" He's a nice guy so I know he meant nothing by it, but I found it humorous.
Observation of the day: Can we stop putting the energy drinks right next to the energy drink alcoholic beverages. I tried to buy a simple energy drink and got one laced with booze.
