I'm doing a stand-up comedy thingy at a comedy bar in Brisbane tonight.
I'm not really shitting my pants yet, but I imagine I will when the time comes closer -- it's about 3 hours away!
I'll tell you how it goes.
Whoo, go DG. Be sure to post your jokes.
Nah, I don't tell jokes.
I provide witty observations about our postmodern discourse.
Oh yeah, and dick and arse humour too.
What? No prop comedy? Bah, you're gonna stink.
You can never go wrong with jokes that capitalize on racial differences...
Tell about awkward situations and places. Like the Proctologist.
My Night As A Stand Up Comic
An essay by Daniel G Macpherson
The night was fucked -- They already had three warm-up acts and didn't need me for the night.
I'll come back next week and see if they need me.
If not, I'll just keep coming back.
However, I got to see a free comedy show and some of the acts were pretty damn funny.
Such is life -- a car crash on a mountain of ice cream.
They had a mountain of ice cream? Awesome.
Sorry about the car crash, though.
Record it for us. I would love to see...
I'll make an MP3 for you.
But only IF I get to perform.
I won't listen to the mp3, unless you promise to swear profusely....
Hey, I recently schemed to do stand-up as well. Except I intend to do bad, horribly bad. I figure I know a few people who might point me in the right direction, the actors from the sketch comedy show I worked on are some of the funniest people in Austin (officially). So yeah, if I can warm up a room with some witty shit, that'd be sweet. A cool hobby at the least.

I don't fuckin' promise anything man!
Get your sister on there. She'd really kick Andrew Dice Clay and Dennis Leary's asses.
For the love of God please mention Andy Penis!
:P

Sorry to hear they didn't need you DG.
But hey, you get to do it later.
Tell a funny joke for teh ragg0t!
SING THE ANDY PENIS SONG!!! MY FRIENDS LAUGH THEIR ARSES OFF EVERY TIME I SING IT!!! Andy Penis, Andy Penis, Andy Penis...
Andy Penis song????
I never heard it!!! Where can it be found?
I'd be interested in watching Daniel make an arse of himself. I'd just need to know when this is happening so i can be there!!! sms me with details fool! and if you do tell me the details i promise to sledge you like crazy!!!!
an example: "my dead grandma is funnier than your ass!!!"
I'm guessing "sledge" is a regional term for "heckle".
I just had a weird vision of Layabout standing over DG with a sledge hammer.
no even, that's gallagher, totally different comedy*
eric
*hilarious
aye even, i guess it must be a regional term, indeed i intend to heckle. Same thing.
Andy Penis
We all wish we were as cool as gallagher....
No way -- Bill Hicks, Lenny Bruce, or Richard Pryor are the dudes!
Rich Hall and Dennis Leary come second place, though.
