I'm not George Carlin yet
(3:44 podcast) I tried stand up for the first time tonight.
It wasn't terrible. It wasn't brilliant by any means. It was a good learning experience. I'll do it again.
It's a lot different than what I'm used to: talking into a microphone in an empty room with no encouragement/discouragement from an audience. The lights were blinding. I couldn't see anyone. It was like talking into a black hole. There were probably 20 people in the room, eight of them were there to perform, so the atmosphere wasn't the best. I'll let friends come watch me next time, so hopefully I'll have more laughs in my corner.
Feel free to share your thoughts.

Not bad, Matt. Maybe you should take some notes from Dane Cook. JK/NF.
Where did you do the stand up thing at?
You've got more balls than me man. Good show. I thought the content was funny, you just sounded nervous and not quite confident. But I'd expect that from anyone's first time.
Better than I could have done. I'll stick to the venue that lets people at least pretend I'm good looking.
Sweet! Where did you do the standup?
Wow, my little boy has become a man. I enjoyed it, keep posting it for us little people.
I did the act at Stanford and Sons, which is now at the Legends near the Kansas Speedway.
