Location: 222 Artisan Bakery (Edwardsville, IL)
Emcee: Doug Morris
After: Lucas Hinderliter
Before: Ben Johnson
Doug asked me to perform on this show and it was on a Saturday night with no wrestling shows in the immediate area, so it was good to check out a new venue and audience. We had free reign on time, so I really wanted to see how long of a set I could do. I wrote out my stronger material and refreshed my memory on some jokes that I hadn't done in a while. I had to check my notes a couple of times, but was able to wing it for most of the set...according to Doug, my set went about twenty minutes and I got fairly consistent laughs throughout. That's a great milestone for me to reach and gives me a big boost of confidence that I can do a feature-length set. Now it's just a matter of getting booked for that position at a comedy club. On top of that, it was a paid gig...always a nice perk. Onward...next up is probably the Westport Funny Bone open-mic on Tuesday night!
