So....... I have another gig..... tomorrow.... Nervous? NOT MUCH!

Yes, I will be performing at The Phoenix in Coventry tomorrow night from 8.30pm onwards, and I'm really looking forward to it. Its been over 3 weeks since my last gig, I think, hold on, NEARLY 3 weeks since my last gig, and I'm missing it. This may only be the second gig I have ever done, but this one is the BIIIIGGG test. This one isn't in front of friends and family, of me or other "newbie" standups, this one is a PROPER gig, with paying punters and (dare I say) "Professionals".

So no pressure.

I've been toying with trying to add to the set that I did at the Highlight showcase, but after a discussion with some of the other guys performing tomorrow I have decided to leave that out, unless I can produce a "Lego Joke" (phrase coined by Rob Jones last night).

LEGO JOKE

I think we may have come up with a new joke term, a "Lego joke" is a joke that can be built on overtime, inbetween sets that just keep getting better and better, kind of like a ongoing joke that never ends, like a never ending storieeeeeeeeeeeeee, nah nah nah, nah, nah nah nah nah nah! Anyway, Rob Jones also came up with a fantastic new joke that I'm sure he wants EVERYONE to know was his "What has 2 legs and bleeds..... a bummed dog!" - Pure comic genius I think you will all agree!

This was just a quick blog to let people know I'm still alive, and pretty much a little bit of self promotion so that I can at least see that I'm doing gigs when I look at my blog.

Toodle Pip!

So I found this post here, when doing my usual scout around the internet, and this got me intrigued. We've used ChatRoulette in a group before and we were amazed at the amount of male genitals you can see in one night! On the initial viewing of chatroullete, it was shocking and we were all diving for the F5 key to disconnect the current chat, but within half and hour, and unknown amount of masturbating men later the worst reaction my mate Andy could muster was a slight raised eyebrow and a small "meh" noise as he calmly attempted to talk to the 50year old man, who's face we hadn't seen yet due to the webcam being pointed at cock level, and he was clearly enjoying himself to much to be bothered about what we were saying!

So.... its been a week since my first Stand up gig at the Highlight in Birmingham, and what a week it has been!
Firstly, (I'm using FIRST allot in this one aren't I) I've created this blog, a place for me to talk, think out loud and allow you lovely people to see exactly how this amazingly scary mind works when you're not around!
Secondly; Gigs, Gigs, Gigs! I'm getting myself about a bit to be honest. I'm booked in for 3 gigs in the next 2 months, Phoenix in Coventry 29th April; Crumblin' Cookie in Leicester sometime in May and The Hollybush in Cradley Heath 3rd June. So if you want to come and see what I'm all about I've got a solid 5-7mins of laughter for you!

So whats this blog all about? I hear you cry! It's pretty much just a place for you to come and get a little glimpse into this mind of mine, a window into the workings and going on's of the brain of Jon Pearson. I'll try and blog once a week, but please don't hold me to that. I'll keep you filled in with gig dates and anything else that is going on in the hectic life of mine.
I'll probably try out some jokes on here to, see what sort of reaction certain topics will get from you my loving audience! I'd like this blog to become a sort of meeting place for regular "Jonny P er's" (see I'm already naming you guys!).

I think I may start a poll, my first gig at the Highlight went well, and I was introduced onto the stage as "Jonny P", should I keep this as my "stage name"? Or should I revert back to just plan old Jon Pearson? Of course, that would also affect the name of this blog..... so its quite a big decision to make, but one that needs to be made sooner rather than later, I think. I'll set that up now me thinks.

Anywho, I'll be off now, ttfn and have fun, but remember 29th April 2010, Phoenix Coventry! Best laugh of your life!
