I got to get more material to get me on stage.. damn i havent done a paid gig before.. i didnt know i was that good.

I'm just going to go ahead and invoke oldsmoboat's law here.

Record it so we can laugh at you.

... I mean with you.

 

[krunchykrome]

Thats funny, because you're not funny.



You should print out a list of the best jokes and quotes here on ATOT and read them to the crowd. If anyone laughs, you know they're a forum member.

 

[So]

Just use mitch hedburg's material. It's always popular and he can't sue you anymore. :evil:

 

[squirrel dog]

work on your timing . Nothing kills a joke like poor timing .

Just tell the audience about your experiences with women. If you can succesfully translate your YAGT's to the stage, you got it made in the shade.


Damn, Astaroth beat me to it...

Dude repeating what other posters posted 5 times is only funny if I do it.

actually, any time you post lately, its pathetic, and we're all laughing at you, not with you.

As i've said, the duck joke is critical. Get it right.

 

[dquan97]

Let me know when and where...I'll show up with a sign that says "ATOT :heart: TGG!!"

 

[blakeatwork]

Ummm..

are you funny?

I mean, if oldsmobot is in the crowd, you're dead..

 

[toekramp]

Fixed. especially if it's your first paying gig...
no go out there and don't be nervous!

just make sure you have a few self depricating follow ups if a joke bombs.

Put this into a story and it will be funny:

The right side of your brain has nothing right in it, and the left side of your brain has nothing left in it

The joke about the duck is vitally important.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

*Ducks*

 

[AdamK47]

A duck walks into a drug store and tells the pharmacist, "Gimme a chapstick and put it on my bill."

 

[UNCjigga]

Just talk about your experiences with girls and car accidents...comedy farking gold right there!!!

Maybe the other comedian doesn't think you are funny, and only wants you to perform before him, therefore making him look twice as funny as normal.

If you can, it would be really cool if you could get a friend to record it, then convert to mp3, then post it on the web for ATOT to hear.
That would be sweet.

I have no jokes, so if I were to get a gig like that, I would just have to improvise, and mostly I would get stuff thrown at me and then the bouncer would kick me out. That being said, take luck!

I coud host it and Good luck :thumbsup:

 

[The Stigenator]

damn you guys, you already know some of my routine.. yes joking about my dating life is part of the deal!
i just woke up, i am about to call the fellow.

 

[mercanucaribe]

Tell jokes comparing white people and Indian people.

 

[axelfox]

1. "I just flew in from XYZ, and boy are my arms tired!"

2. ". . . . I mean, why don't they just make the whole plane out the black box?!"

 

[Kelvrick]

Remember to post the details. I'll come by if I'm free. Only if its free though...

 

[The Stigenator]

[BooGiMaN]
