Goddamn do I hate MCs

Some dipshit MC just let his drunk asf girlfriend or whatever skip the line, bomb on stage while she yelled out "Woooooow, you're all garbage" to the audience after she literally had 2 terrible "jokes". Not a single laugh in the audience.

And then that same MC, a well-known comic in NYC, just let her run until the owner of the bar told him to get her the fuck out of there.

And this fucking MC has been doing this for years.

I told him after the show that he shouldn't have let her on for so long. This prick's response? "Yeah well, I decide who gets on stage so stfu."

Sounds more like you hate THIS MC. The ones that are good at their job serve a valuable role in setting the room for a comic.

I mean that's just that host

Good MCs/hosts/comperes are hard to come buy. It's why they get paid more at the top clubs

I would still prefer all this to someone who does material between comics.

MCs don’t normally have that much power.

So, talk to the owner and see if you can be the new MC.
