Slide Inn

Last night I got to headline a show at the slide in. It's a small bar that is usually packed for the show. Tonight is no exception. There's probably around 40 to 50 people sitting down when the show starts.
   Everybody goes up and has pretty good sets and then I closed it out. It felt pretty standard, nothing too eventful. One woman asked me if I was registered to vote within the first two minutes of me starting my set because I was doing some new register to vote material and it kind of threw me off but nonetheless everything went over pretty okay. I pulled out some old stuff some new stuff and just kind of had a random fun time.

Casino Run

This week I got to do to casinos back-to-back. I've never been to either one so it's pretty exciting to perform in two new venues.
   First up is the Tulalip Casino. It is a huge casino with a very Grand Ambiance, really nice looking inside. The show room is nice and holds probably about 300 people, although only 30 show up. The crowd is sparse and they are not laughing at much at all. Basically this set was terrible, I never connected with the audience and I left feeling pretty shitty. I ended up getting bad reviews from the house manager, but fortunately the booker didn't really care and I'm sure I'll end up being back soon.
   Up next was the Muckleshoot Casino. This is also a very huge casino inside with a million slot machines. This set went way better than the first one, I walked offstage feeling pretty good about myself. The sound guy was cool and the audience was small but with it. Afterwards me and done and I'm getting accosted by a random patron telling us that he was going through withdrawals or some shit. He was really weird. Me and Don then left immediately and drove home.

Helium and Brody

   Tonight is a typical Tuesday so I head out to Helium Comedy Club to work on some new material. It's a pretty small crowd because there's a basketball game on but they're all really nice and laughing. I go up and do some new material and then closed on a rant about Genesis. It went pretty damn well.
  Afterwards I headed to Brody to try the same material again, what could go wrong? I ate shit pretty horribly. I love it.
