Kenton Club

     Booked for a gig at the "World famous" Kenton Cafe last night. It was a metal show with me and another comic starting the show off.
     The club was your standard dive bar. Pool table, slot machines, and drunk metal heads rounding out the room. Small stage in the corner with good lighting and sound.
     Max goes first, and does well. all his jokes land, they're all quick and to the point and the crowd dug it. I go up next, start off strong. Getting nice long applause breaks in between my first couple jokes but start to lose the crowd when I tell my longer story jokes. they just didn't want to have to have to pay attention to anything longer than 20 secs at a time. Regardless, the night went well and the bands were great!

Helium - Dantes .....

     Tonight I went to Helium and had a blast. It was a great crowd, all the comics did well. I was #16, so I was up at about a hour into the show. About half the comics that went on tonight were people I had never seen before, and they all did pretty damn well.
    I went with an opener I knew worked, a new joke and wrapped up with a semi new "E.R. with a drunk girl" closer. Got a great response and headed of to Dantes with a smile.
    I get to Dantes and am put on last, which is usually a great spot, as the audience builds throughout the night. By the time I got on, it was pretty packed, but the audience wasn't having any of it. Oh, it was brutal. Seriously a disaster.  I started of with a "classic" cancer bit, which got nothing....seriously, not a damn thing. The audience was just talking over me, not giving a fuck. Its funny because I had just done the same set that killed at Helium only an 90 minutes before....comedy can be a fickle bitch.
    So in conclusion, another great night!

Gypsy...

    Its been a long, fun week and tonight is no exception. Its a long list at Gypsy tonight so I kill some time next door singing karaoke. Rebel Yell is my go to and I belt it out hard.
   A bacholorette party walks in while Cody is doing a set, and since they are all drunk they start heckling. Cody is not having that shit and he launches into one girl hard, she can't take a joke and gets super pissed...its hilarious.
    Kyle decides to drop "n bombs" on stage and afterwards a few black dudes have some words with him... Nothing happens though.

Helium...

    I got the pleasure of hosting tonight at Helium Comedy Club for the first time. It was a great show with a special guest (Todd Glass) closing out the night.
    I opened up with a 15 minute set and the crowd seemed to dig it. My new pesticide joke fell flat though, so that was rough. But other than that, it felt great! The crowd was fun.
    Now I am sitting at Tonic Lounge for some open mic action....it never stops.
