success…
i went back to annies and did another set.
i had all new material and my delivery was 100x better.
there were about 30 people for my set and i got really good solid laughs throughout the whole set.
i felt super comfortable, and it was an awesome feeling having the whole room laughing throughout my entire set.
i even had a few people come up after the show and tell me they loved my act (and nobody knew it was only my 2nd time).
the only lame thing is my recorder messed up so i couldn’t upload the video, but i will go back and get it on tape either next week or week after.
the important thing is that i made huge strides in just my 2nd time on stage, and i really felt confident in my new material so if it hadn’t gone well i would’ve been very discouraged.
i have no ambitions to become a famous comedian and perform on comedy central or anything, i just really enjoy being up on stage and making people laugh, and when you go to a comedy show there are always like 5 or 6 comedians up there that you have never heard of but are hilarioius, that is the level that i would like to achieve.
obv i don’t need to ever make a living doing comedy, as i am fortunate enough to be able to play poker for a living, so this is purely something i am doing for fun.
i have to go down to LA for the legends of poker WPT event which starts on the 22nd so i’m not sure if i’ll be able to get back onstage before i head down to LA, but as soon as i get back up i’ll make sure my flip recorder is working properly so i can upload a video.
