what's the most time anyone here has done at once? i've done about 12 minutes but tomorrow i'm pushing for 20. basically gonna break it down into 5 minutes on 4 different general topics. a lot of this material has been tested and it's a kind of rowdy room. i think it will be a good learning experience. has anyone else done this much time or more? thoughts/advice?
how do we feel about paid stage time?
for example: a colleague of mine is putting on a comedy competition with a $25 buy in. the prize is 200, a bottle, and stage time at a bigger venue. i don't see the point of paying for stage time but i also gamble ha and the prize is worth it. what do y'all think? would you ever do something like this?

The competition I did two months ago was like that. Ten dollar entry but a chance for exposure. Open mic dudes have no reason to feel entitled IMO. we gotta grind, just gotta weigh if each individual opportunity is worth it
that's my line of thinking as well. i've done a few benefits and what not but i'm pretty much just out here grindin it out. i did 20 minutes the other night and it was ok. the crowd was feeling me enough to buy drinks and have sex afterwards. ha.
i just feel weird about paying for time but i think this will be a decent investment. it's a good chance to get my name out there to more folks. i need me some more followers and what not.
Holy shyt, this thread is alive? I started it way back and forgot about it.
I've been doing standup on the reg since February. Took part in the first round of a tournament last night and crushed it, even though it was only a 5 min set.
Anyone from Florida?

Bismillahir Rahmnir Raheem. In the name of God the Most Beneficent The Most Merciful. It's good to hear that Dave Chappelle is a Muslim. It's sad to see Dave Chappelle Cussing. Someone get the message across to Dave that we are not supposed to cuss in Islam.

Set I did last year. Quality isn't that great and I don't have anything more recent because I don't often record my sets lately.
