I wasn't feeling it tonight at all. I had had a bit to drink, but not too much. I don't think it was just that. The general stress I've been feeling all week may have had something to do with it. The fact that I was doing another 5 in a London club when I went expecting a 10 and wasn't even officially on their list probably didn't help. The unruly crowd and selection of formula gags from other acts were not useful either. I just wasn't connected up. I replayed a reasonably paced recording of my set to the crowd, and they laughed in most of the right places. But I won nothing and wasn't satisfied. I'm glad that the winning act's 'encore' showed up his lack of further material. . . But my own 5 didn't make me expect a 10 spot booking any time soon. Not good.
I think I need a holiday!

On the up side, though, I saw a shop whose name amused me:
I also had some amusement in the bar before the show.
