    They brought it back? I went by a few years ago and they told me they didn't do it anymore.

    Uh, hate to break it to you, L Wood, but there doesn't seem to be anyone in the audience. Those stage lights must be bright.

    ;)

    I always enjoy going to comedy clubs, but don't do it enough. Don't know why.

    Most people sit in the back tables of the bottom section... That pic was taken from my wife sitting at the front tables... It really is a nice crowd and they are pretty lively..

    LOL.. I was nervous as hell when it got closer to my time... Then when I grabbed the mic , I forgot how nervous I was.... I got nervous toward the end of my set... Told a good joke and left it at that... I had about 2 minutes left of content...lol

    It's a dive on Montrose. The open mic is put together by some people called "The Secret Group". Seems like every Tuesday at 9pm

    I wanted to make it Tuesday but it was St. Patties day. I actually went last night with a friend and they had some CMT standup showcase. A few of the people were really funny. There were only about 20-30 people in the crowd but it was still a good time.
