I've decided to do some work on structuring my set. I've noticed I have a habit of constantly coming up with new material and not giving any thought to how it all fits together. Then, on the day of a gig, I suddenly panic as I start to try and piece it together into a cohesive act.
My last gig suffered because of this. I was still trying to decide which material to do and in what order when the compere introduced me.
This gig is another Gong Show. You get 2 minutes grace on this one before the crowd decide whether to keep you on or get rid. So now I need to concetrate on how I structure that 2 minutes in such a way that I can make them like me, build a sense of community in the room, and get them laughing before the red cards start to go up.
How hard can that be?

When you have it worked out, how about loading up your 2 minute routine to this bog for a review?
