The drug jokes saved your life breh...:russ:

I was about to throw rotten tomatoes at my laptop screen...

that's why i saved them for last. it's been a crazy summer because i've gotten a lot better in such a short period of time and i'm still getting it together. i was scared as fukk in that room in ATL so when i got back to vegas, i started going up on stage almost every night, sometimes twice.

:ohhh: lmao. that sounds so bad.

no i just did a public service announcement from the ''church of alcoholism''. i did it like a militant black man and instead of 'whitey' holdin us back it was 'the sober man'. i got more people looking than laughing. at least they listened.

been gettin a weird kinda stage fright lately. i haven't been bombing but i've just been feeling a lot of pressure before hitting the stage. i got a new 10 minutes to try out later this week and a coupla mics in between. i've also been meeting a lot of cool people and i feel kinda stressed because i want to keep up the pace and make sure this comedy thing takes me somewhere. i did a benefit show the other night because someone cancelled. it was cool that i filled the spot and i got a good reaction. weird show tho! it was a rock show with a few comics in between so it was an uphill battle from the start to get ppl to pay attention. i did ok and meet some cool folks, too.

i just wanna stay sharp! i want to get this shyt while it's gooooood.

I'm going to post my very first one it was a fundraiser for special olympics and I crossed the line big time. I also spent the week before hand partying and not preparing till about an hour before I got on stage. there was about 140 people there and I knew maybe 40 people so I did throw in some inside jokes yall wont get about my self. Don't be to mean

Pretty good. I laughe'd a lot. Youve got natural timing. Only real criticism is that you needed notes

No doubt. I didn't plan on using the notes but after I saw how many people showed up and how many drinks I had I got so nervous. I actually worked it into a joke before they started filming, kinda like a anti joke thing so it actually worked out, and a lot of people came up to me afterwards and told me they had found it funny. The counting of the joke was where I got some of my biggest laughs. Plus I was so nervous I couldn't even read the notes, so I wasn't even really using them. But I feel you on the notes thing.

i'm still watching but i got halfway which i see as the turn. those jokes are funny, dude. you've got a good vibe. without the notes i probably would have lost it during your whole set tbh. im not hating tho. i'm actually very impressed. great job.

@NelsonSwagdela that big about your parents, especially your mom was pretty damn solid, too!

Hey man I appreciate it. Yeah once I got to the jokes I knew, the ones about my parents it became easier. I still stumbled though and didnt deliver exactly how I wanted. Your guys comments definitely help. Anything besides someone telling you, you flat out suck should be advice you can use. Thanks brehs
