Tonight I am the featured/opening act of a vs Improv showdown. There is a nice sizable crowd in the room tonight. Everyone is in good spirits and sitting up front.
I go on stage and do about 14 minutes. Everything seemed alright. I feel like I lost them a little bit near the end and closed on my homeless joke which I'm starting to get tired of using as a closer so often. It's a very solid joke, but I wrote it over a year ago. I have other material which I feel comfortable closing on but I just felt the tone of the room shift down a little and wanted to make sure I ended on something I know would work.
And it did.
Afterwards I stuck around for Midnight Mass. My favorite once a month showcase that is not the Dirty Dozen. The show was fantastic as usual. Great guest set from Dan Soder. Amy killed it with a story I had never heard before proving her white trashness
This is a personal blog / diary of my experiences being a stand up comedian. Most of the entries take place in the Portland Oregon / Pacific NW area.
