SWF It Good

This is what I don’t like about Comedy

February 17th, 2006

I’ve been doing the Heyna’s open mic and the first time I did it Gary Hood told me that what I did was good but “where’s the goofy, funny stuff”. So next time I come with the funny, goofy, owner says, “Thats cool and all but I want to see you do a tight five”. So today I come with a tight five and Gary says, “That’s good the puns and all that but do the witty stuff” I did that I did that last time and the owner told me to do a tight five. “Well you got to do the stuff you would to for an audition”. That is what I did. “Well I don’t want to bust your chops.”

I love comedy and I love doing jokes but I hate being directed back and forth for every little thing. He says I do great at open mics, that’s because no one is telling me do this do that I do what I want and that’s what I’ll do from now on and if I don’t get that guest spot then I don’t get it. I’m not getting a comedy boob job for work. Ala Naural.
