God, I mean I had so many people tell me, 'What you're doing doesn't work.' I used to have to get on stage and apologize for talking the way that I speak.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm the kind of person that believes that I would like to be evaluated by my entire career and my entire life, not two words that I would misspeak and then later apologize for.
For me, until I know that the audience really gets what I'm trying to communicate I'm not done.
The complaint with me being on stage was always that I was slightly too naturalistic and not projecting enough. I've got quite a soft voice, so that didn't help.
Usually I'm too tired to apologize.
One of the things I'm trying to get better at is apologizing when I make mistakes. That's been a big priority of mine.
I try not to apologize, especially publicly. That's a slippery slope, because I'm a comedian. If you take anything I'm saying too seriously, then you shouldn't be paying attention in the first place. If you find me offensive, don't follow me.
If I had to control what I was speaking, it would be a chore. Right now I just feel I've got my shoes off, everybody comes in, I talk. If I was an actor it could be a problem, but right now I just talk all the crap, I can badmouth anybody I want, I can say what I want and move on.
I lost my temper on stage.
I never used to speak to the audience at all. I never really knew what to say onstage.
I've spent my life hearing people trying to apologize for music.
