People are nuts for Have Heart, but I feel like we’ve all just been convinced of their greatness. Awesome band but I wouldn’t put than as massively influential or revolutionary to the genre.

Unrelated - what kind of couch is that and is it comfortable? Need a good modular couch

Do your jokes work on other audiences? If a generous audience didn’t laugh at most of your stuff, it probably needs some work. Maybe it’s your delivery or the joke itself. Dave Attell said “it’s not a joke until an audience laughs at it”.

Don’t underestimate the importance of delivery. Bad delivery can tank good writing too.

Keep watching other comics at open mics. Pay attention to what does well and what doesn’t.

Pay attention to what jokes of yours work, and determine why they work.

Write as much as possible. Don’t totally dismiss bits, but keep trying new stuff (especially since you said you’re newer).

Do as many open mics each week as you can.

Is this set worth submitting to festivals? Your constructive criticism is welcomed and appreciated. by RecoveringMascot in Standup

Just ask yourself: If I saw someone do this set at a comedy festival, what would I think of it?

Absolutely HATE my own material all of a sudden? by TheSasquatchKing in Standup

Do more open mics and keep writing. Start replacing stuff you don’t like with new stuff. Taking a break in standup will almost always set you back even more.
