Open mic...
A coworker... tall guy with a loud voice who often cracks jokes had mentioned he loves to sing and is in a men's chorus. I've known this for a while. Last week, after he made a joke, I said "Maybe you should do some stand-up" and his reply was "Funny you should mention that." He swipes the gallery on his cellphone and shows some photos of him on stage.There are a few venues in the Delray Beach area that a night or two each week allow for amateur talent to perform. One place does Open Mic Tuesday. It's normally a slow crowd so something different is a way to bring in more customers. He enlarges the photo that shows another coworker in the crowd!
His side gig is working on stand-up comedy.
I told him next time he plans to perform, let me know... I'd like to see his routine.
Closed the shop,
Sold the house,
Bought a ticket to the West Coast,
Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A.
