Stand-Up

Day 12 (354) – DFBS – Minute 2

Based on the comments, I think I may change some of my opening material slightly.  Since “penis” apparently isn’t PG, then I’ll just drop that joke and segue into being depressed about not having found anyone.

I don’t know that I’ll drop the #1 at Wendy’s as I need a quick joke for the intro, but I may try to think of another way to say that I am single.

From where we left off, this is the next minute of the set.  This is where it slows down some and has some story elements and acting to it.  Hopefully my portrayal as a cute, lovable kid is not only darling, but also funny.

“Do you guys remember the first time you heard your real voice?  The day you realized that the voice that you heard in your head wasn’t the same voice everyone else heard?  I remember the day I realized that.  It’s hard to forget such a traumatizing experience.

It was back in the fourth grade.  I had made a video for school, and I go to play it for the first time.  [ACT OUT putting the tape in]  Put the tape in, and go back and sit with my friends.  [ACT OUT slightly higher voice] ‘Watch this guys, this is gonna be rad.’  (pause) [ACT OUT confusion] ‘Did… di .. did my little sister dub over my voice?’  And then it starts to sink in… Drew that’s your voice… you don’t even have a little sister.”
So minute two, how we doing so far?
