> I fancy doing an open-mike spot sometime. I think it would either be incredibly good fun or else they'd throw tomatoes (in Glasgow, they leave them in the tins), but either way I could say that I'd given it a shot.

I've always wanted to try this, but lately I've really been leaning away from wanting to try stand-up comedy towards wanting to try working with an improv comedy group. Improv comedy seems like a better gig than stand-up. With stand-up, you're pretty much doing the same material, night after night. An improv group allows you -- forces you --to do different material each show. Plus, if you're feeling off that night, you can always let one of the other cast members step up that show.

I might really look into this. Time to see if there's any comedy troupes in town.
