    For the love of Christ stop pacing and looking to the ******* ground, to your audience you look like a wounded animal. Your Korean joke was worthless: no discussion about what you were holding up, no follow up anecdotes; and unless Philly has a uniquely large Korean population it serves no purpose, probably biased me against your whole act (not for any PC reasons either).

    Takes a lot of stones to get on stage.

    it's funny how nobody really watches maury, but everybody knows about maury. I'm not going to lie, I've watched Cristina before.

    I liked the joke about the Maury guest/funeral eulogy and the irrelevant info.

    I didn't much care for the Libya joke though. The rest of set was decent.

    It takes a lot of guts to go on stage and tell jokes. So props for that.

    May have some follow-ups as I couldn't complete the act first time: less due to quality than just because I wanted to get those initial criticisms out. The Maury joke should definitely have been fleshed out with some contravening examples; either with other similar celebrities or just some everyman example.

    I thought it was okay, but you could use some work on your delivery. Probably had some to do with your nerves since you're new to it.

    Props thought, and +1 rep for the balls to go on stage and do a comedy act.

    I will give you some advice...

    First, don't tell a stupid ****ing joke.

    Second, don't tell a stupid ass ****ing joke.

    Third, don't tell stupid ****ing jokes.

    I love the constructive criticism and compliments guys. Also, moestavern, you're a douchelord.

    Just kidding, being nervous is understandable. Material and delivery could be better.

    keep working at it.

    And tell your friends to stop laughing at things that aren't funny.

    pretty good - the audience seemed to dig it too. i dont see a problem w/ your delivery - its casual and laid back, but it works for you.

    my biggest complaint is w/ the audio quality - very tinny and reverbery - it was hard to follow along w/ alot of the act.

    how long have you been getting up onstage?

    You're a douche plantain bro.

    When you are writing your material, try to come up with something fresher than racial differences and the behavior of lower class people on daytime talk shows.

    Its like you come up on stage and start strumming 3 chords and singing doo woop a lop a lop or some bull****.

    Write about something real that nobody else even thinks about, even if it happens to be racist or sexist, it doesn't matter because you're narrating initial thoughts.

    Realism counts for a lot, you're trying to communicate with people here, not tell them jokes. Act like you're sitting at the end of a futon with your buddy smoking a J and you're just BSing to him about some stupid ****.

    Had trouble hearing it.

    I can only imagine how hard it is to not say filler words while your up there.

    Keep practicing.

    relevant is funny.

    Maury is not relevant.

    Either way, I commend you for the courage to grab the mic.

    To those hating, I guarantee you they wouldn't have the balls to go up on a stage and tell jokes.

    So, mad props.

    moes easily could have been less of a douche.
