This weekend I got to perform at Harveys for the first time since my 1 year ban. I get to work with a cool head liner that I have opened for before and the feature is also a local guy.
The Thursday show was a small crowd but they were into comedy. Both Friday shows were sold out and felt great. The 5 o'clock Saturday show was pretty light but it was still a great crowd and the next two Saturday shows were phenomenal. The sunday show though, that was the worst one by far. Probably about 40 people in the audience and it felt pretty silent while I was trying to be a host. That was a battle. But seeing as that was the last of 7 shows, the night ended with a pretty good wave of relief haha.
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.

Dirty Dozen
My day started off good. My car that was stolen 3 weeks ago was found, in perfect condition only a mile away from my home. All that was stolen was the change in the ashtray. Good shit. That night was a Dirty Dozen Showcase...
The show was really good. Amazing packed crown, all the comics did well. I did a very old joke I havent told in 3+ years and refreshed it and made it actually good! I did some more new material about how all drugs taste bad and closed on a meh note. Tried doing my getting flashed material and it just didnt click so I called an audible and told one more quick one liner that also didnt really stick. The show was great regardless, I am always nit picking every detail so of course I am never satisfied.
Afterwards I ate some Potato Champion and drove home to play Counter Strike and get high. My life is pretty good.
