50-51

So I'll be at the next open mic on may 15th.  In addition in June I'm going to start preforming at the cove on Sunday nights, probably every other week.  Once I get my sleeping schedule down I'll be hitting Baltimore that could be in a couple months.  I'm starting therapy soon, so hopefully that will help I'm not rushing this so it could be the end of summer or sometime in the fall until I start preforming in Baltimore.  chow

Camera Down

Date: 1/18/17
Location: Marietta, PA
Venue: Railroad House Inn
Type: Open Mic
#: 47

I was going to have somebody take pictures of my performance, so whenever I get shows.  I have a professional looking shot for fliers but my camera had a different idea, it died right before my set.  So no mug shot for me, boo-hoo!

Stage fright my constant foe.  I will defeat you.

I did a couple things right in the set.  First I got on stage.  Second, I told jokes even though my mind went blank because of anxiety but I did it.  They laughed at them which was nice.

I cringed when I got off stage because I forgot to mention I had business cards on me.  Plus I forgot to do the oreo bit which I still don't know if it needs to be rewritten.  Anxiety being a jerk.  I'll overcome it someday soon.
 

burn it down and walk away

So a fellow comedian from the Kutztown area told me and he had seen me at Lizard Lounge was at this open mic.  He complemented my material before and after my set.  Plus he thinks I should start going to Philly.  I agree, but I need a job first so I can go to Philly, Baltimore, D.C. and their surrounding metro areas.

My set was good, I'm done with using note cards.  I hope to get shows soon and post videos me making people laugh.

I probably won't be at this open mic next month (dec 21) because of a scheduling conflict.

3 minute ninja

10/19/16

So I drove to this open mic expecting 5-7 and got 3 minutes, its 24 miles away from my house but I'm understanding.  I would call it an average performance and the video sound was horrible and the response wasn't great so I'm not planning on posting what was recorded.  I'm hoping it goes back to 5-7 minutes.  I also had the wrong start time which was annoying overall I left fairly annoyed because I would have prepared differently and used different jokes with the shorter time had I known ahead of time.  and yes nobody showed up but what else is new.  People lie to me all the time and tell me their going to come to my performances, thankfully that didn't happen in this case.

the nervous anthem

I had a great time at this once a month open mic.  I was fairly nervous, stage fright my constant foe.  The new material I did worked fairly well, I screwed up jokes because of the nerves and wasted a couple minutes trying to find my joke list.  For once I wasn't attacked for my material, it was refreshing.  Personally when people attack me its shows their insecurities and that their not man enough to talk to me about the material I do.  If you think attacking me is going to advance your career your an idiot.
