Am I going to ever have a good set at Winston's again?

It's crazy I just can't seem to have a set I feel comfortable with at Winston's. It simply feels like death up there every week. There definately have been more people there since I've taken over, which is nice because that means more money in my pocket. But last night I got no laughs and barely any money. It's like even jokes that kill some other places I can barely get chuckles. All the crowds want to hear is about fucking, cumming, and shitting. I hate doing jokes like that, it's so over done. Can't you people appreciate a well crafted joke. Christ think outside the box. People say it's a comics job to make people laugh. Well if i have to stoop to that level to make people laugh comedy probably isn't for me.

We had some people come down from L.A. One guy was pretty good, but he had been doing it for 7 years. The other 2 were sub par. They had solid stage presence and commanded the audience attention, but all their jokes wee yelling or at the level of an 8th grade male. I mean I know bars are tough rooms but this is getting rediculous. I can't get any steam. I kill one night, then do Winston's and feel like shit again.

Let's talk about egos for a moment. There is one local comic that is getting a huge ego. It's pretty rediculous. We're all at the same level you don't need to act like just because you kiss ass better than me you can entertain better than me. Note to up and coming comics, don't show up for your set 5 minutes before and leave 5 minutes after saying, "I'd stay but I got another set, I got another set." Good for you. I don't really care to be honest. I want to get booked for shows because I'm funny not because I tugged your balls for a half hour and laughed at your jokes I've heard 500 times. Sadly that's not how comedy works, but I will continue to work on promoting myself, and start booking these jaded folks less and less.

Show from last night and show from Jan 3 2010.

Jokes: Smokey the bear, 100% American, What a dick, anger book, gf cheered, hand jobs, pulling out, not tough/black women, speed dating
