Tried out a new five minutes last night but couldn't really tell if I killed or if the crowd was just drunk and loving everybody. I had a blast though

Hey I watched your set

Jokes that hit with me:
Dad missing. 20 years no leads.
Henessey
Xanax PMs bro
Weed in jail

Joke that fell flat:
scared straight

You're the guy that was homeless a while ago and is now living his dream. Much respect. Also as a former pant sagger(up until the 8th grade when i realized how lame it was), pull up your goddamn pants.

Thanks for the feedback, man! Yeah that scared straight bit is brand new I'm still working it out. I got a show tonight, gonna try it again

---

Also that belt is just trash and needs an extra hole that I've been too lazy to add

---

Bump

---

You're gonna make it bruh, that was a pretty funny set.

---

Tag for later.

---

Didnt give a shout out to CE.

That was fucking funny

Thanks so much bro. A lot of those were new jokes so I was a bit nervous on how they would go

---

The feedback you got at the end summed it up well I think. Your delivery is pretty great already and the more you do this the better you'll get. So keep at it!

If you guys are bored and interested here's another 5 minute set I did recently, all the jokes are different except for my opener:

lol that was some good stuff, thanks for sharing. Needed a good laugh tonight.

---

Thanks for all the positive feedback, peeps. I'm gonna try and write a joke about CE and I'll post the video here if I perform it

---

I laughed a couple times, good job dude. I actually liked the scared straight bit too

---

do you get paid for these?

---

You seem like a natural up there. I just don't understand how you can make people laugh for minutes at a time. I could come up with maybe 30 seconds of material, and it would be awful. My delivery would be trash too.

Good stuff man.

Thanks dude. That one is a work in progress but I feel like it has legs. I need to cut some fat off though the host was right

Hell no lol. I've done a few paid gigs before in Miami but it was usual only like 50 bucks and that was really rare.

I've only been doing comedy for little over a year so I'm still probably years away from getting paid good money for gigs. Luckily I have a good job lol

This time right now is all about building an act and getting good on stage

---

lmfao that was good shit fam well done

---

You come off real charismatic and comfortable. Enjoyed the set bro!

I'll never do stand up but I dont want these two premises to go to waste so feel free to explore:

Baby showers during the first trimester should be called "maybe showers"

And Oscar Pistorious missing a huge opportunity by killing his wife with a gun when he has fucking blade legs

Dude I went to an amateur comedy night that had a bunch of people who paid to do classes and you were better than all of them already. Timing and delivery is so hard to get right.

The Scared bit needs some trimming but the Kool aid bit is gold.

Yo that "maybe showers" is hilarious, you sure that's not already taken by a comic? Seems way too perfect. If not then yeah, I'd be glad to make that my flagship CE bit

Oh I didn't know you were Hyde

Man I really dont think I've heard it anywhere before. I tried it out at work in front of dudes and girls. The reactions were different but positive. Like a shouldn't be laughing but laughing. Shit man maybe I'll hold onto it

I think a lot of people might not know what scared straight is. It's even implied in the name, bad kids that get scared straight, but I guess people don't know about it at all or what the reference. It works for what you're doing, but I think the lady at the end is right, probably maybe speed it up? Other than that the other jokes worked out pretty well.

Maybe relax a bit on the fill in the gap words you use like dude, bro, and shit. It's not really bothersome, but you can work on it and get more crisp and concise. Or you can use it to really push that stoner outlook you have. But these are words you seem to use to fill in or emphasize a point. In a five minute bit it might not show up, but if you go for longer stand ups, people will definitely notice and probably hold it against you. I don't know why I'm even commenting on it, I seemed to notice it. Not like I'm a standup expert or anything, but it can work or work against you is what I was trying to say.

Watching the second video, seems like you'll do just fine with the heckling from Jack. I did like the self racism bit, you could probably work with that a bit more.

But like everyone said, you're definitely in full control on the stage and don't feel intimidated at all and that's a great first step.
