Comedy Part 858: Socially Distant
Location: Orphan Smokehouse (Centralia, IL)
Emcee: Tim Loss
After: Tim Loss
Before: Jason Dormire
Also On Show: Alex Blodgett, Nate Barron, Larry Smith, Clay Foley
This was my first show in a while as the Funny Bone temporarily closed due to pandemic restrictions. The audience was kept at a distance from the stage and hand sanitizer was available so the show was as safe as possible. Not everything in my set worked as well as I would have liked, but it was a good set in general. I had the opportunity to try a few new things but it was hard to tell how well they worked...that might be better suited for an open-mic environment. It sounds like a vaccine for COVID-19 is pretty close, so hopefully the long national nightmare will be over soon.
