Notes
It was a great night last night, after taking nearly a year off comedy, and coming back and getting some laughs. I feel super fat on stage, part of the reason I stopped, and I’ll have to keep working on that…
I almost cancelled before the show, not just from being sick, but also because I had no confidence in my material. But I was rewriting parts of it right up to the last minute of the show, and it came out far better than what I had originally written down.
Because that’s what I do. I have a hundred notes, I pull them together into some kind of storyline I can remember, and then I say it a dozen times until it comes out naturally, all the while changing words here and there to make it funny.
As for this specific show; I was far more nervous than you’d expect from my 19th show, I forgot my place part way, messed up one joke majorly, two fell completely flat and need major work; and people were laughing at things I didn’t expect. All in all, not a bad return. I won’t leave it so long before trying again…
Everyone else up there was great, the audience was really forgiving, and John Conway in particular was back in Perth and being his amazing self, and I can’t wait for his special show on Sunday night.
