Stand-up Debut

One thing that has always been on my bucket list is stand-up.  I knew it was only a matter of time.  Well, Tuesday was that time.  Your first time is always tough - even without stage fright - but it was an easy crowd because most of them were friends that were kind enough to come out to support me!

Toastmasters humorous speech competitions are one thing - but I knew going into it that stand-up is a whole other beast.  It went well - and I look forward to next time.  Things will only improve with practice.

Stand-up should be on everyone's bucket list to try... it's like skydiving without the comfort of the backup parachute.  Behold - I invoke the power of YouTube to make it as if you were there! The video is dark because the Blind Tiger is an environmentally friendly bar that eschews indoor lighting on principal.

WARNING:  In the video a few profanities are used in the name of humor - but I was one of the cleanest acts of the night.  Trust me.
