Current Events > Just did an open mic

(+) Yeah! (+)

It was completely dead by the time I went up. It was in a Thai restaurant. I don't think I got a sincere laugh but once I got up there it was too bright to see anyone. Then after me this guy was talking about how he lost his phone and was going to punch whoever looked like they have it. He was kidding but he kept going on about it.

Then afterwards he was ranting at the host for several minutes and got everyone really uncomfortable. I hadn't mentioned it was my first one to anyone but it was so dead and then tense it wasn't a great atmosphere to talk about anything.

Ah well! Now I know I can survive dead silence at least. I won't have to beat myself up for being too afraid to try anymore. Maybe it helped that it was low key.

He didn't say clodhoppers, but that was kind of the gist of it until they figured out another guy took the wrong one and came back.

Let me have it

your jokes aren't too bad, but you should work on the delivery. i liked the running shoes/mobile phone joke but it needed to land harder that he'd rather have your shoes than your $1000+ iphone

but yeah it sounded like the audience was dead af

yeah, I had more on that one but I thought I heard someone yell boo at that point so I was thrown off and decided to move on. That's when I was like "so that happened........"

I was gonna go on about how this guy was making great money in a much cheaper part of the country and how it seemed like he had thought about it before I ever mentioned it that he would want my shoes. I'll try that next time.

thanks!
