So, I did Winston's last night. Weird weird night. It was rainy, and there was a good amount of people there. Sad thing is they were not there for the comedy, they were neither there for the band. They pretty much talked the entire show. Everyone had a rough time winning the crowd over. I got up there and basically said nothing for a few seconds. This brought the entire crowds attention to me. I kept them pretty quiet and got some laughs as well. I felt it was one of my better shows, simply because I won over a really tough crowd. Some girl came to watch me. I always feel pressure to impress ppl that come watch me for the first time. I warned her before I went up it probably won't be too great, but she said she enjoyed it I'll give my set an A-.
Couple pieces of advice for new comics. Don't bad mouth clubs to other people who will in turn tell the club promoters, that's going to get you off shows pretty quickly. Also, don't pass out tickets to other shows after performing at a club. Very disrespectful.
I wrote about 7 minutes of new jokes yesterday. I haven't had one of those days in a really long time. I think I was in a life rutt, and meeting the girl has got me out of the funk. I did a few of them last night and they went pretty well. I have been drinking a few adult beverages the last few weeks before my Winston's shows. Nothing too crazy, but I should probably cut back a bit. Also, I have an opportunity to take over another room on Thursday nights. It's just a bar, and won't be anything big, but I would like a no pressure room to dick around and hang out with some comics. I will be calling the owner tomorrow, if he makes it worth my time, I'll probably take it over.
Jokes: 100% American, needle in a haystack, nintendo, getting older, dmv, cialis
