Well, my Thanksgiving day adventure was great. I got to see the whole family and nobody died. It’s midnight:01. I did a private show for a company’s Christmas party the other night. Usually, these are nice paying clean shows with an attentive eager to laugh audience. Not this time. That was a rowdier show than a lot of bar one-nighters I’ve done! I know I was in trouble when one of the female employees got onstage to welcome everyone to the event and the BOSS yelled out, “Show us your boobies!!” in a drunken stupor and then laughed really hard and probably pissed himself. After starting the show out using every sexual innuendo I’ve ever heard, she brings me up. Immediately the front row (one girl) turns around and starts talking to the second row (one girl). I have never been personally and directly insulted so much at any show I have ever done. The only thing preventing me from completely unleashing on their horrible behavior was the realization that this was their christmas party and they were having fun. If they want to spend their christmas party verbally berating me, fine. I’ll be your whore.
I booked a bit of work today, so that was good. Check out the schedule page and see if I’m coming to a town near you.
