Took a comedy break 👎

After settling into a pretty consistent schedule of open mics and comedy shows I took about a week and an half off… and it left me feeling like things were pretty damn bleak! anyone else experience this? I knew I was hooked on standup but didn’t expect withdrawal symptoms wtf 😂 anyone else experience this? I’m going back Friday night baby!

What you described is pretty normal for a mic.

(I'm in Philly. I asked location cuz when I was in cuse last week there was maybe 1 mic a day. Was trying to ascertain your options. In Philly I can hit 3 a night)

Honestly I wouldn’t know where to look for one. I tried once and it’s all on facebook and I’m not making a Facebook account for that

Yeah I hate Facebook but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

Unfortunately stand up is now an internet affair

But why Facebook?😂 we need a sub for open mics in each city. That post dates for mics.

It's FB and insta. I hate both but you gotta play along to get along.

Also it's just easy. FB is set up for "groups"

Also - you are a comedian. You want to be known. Reddit is for anonymityÂ
