Are you going to have friends in the audience for reassurance? Or would you feel less nervous with no one you know there?

I'm taking the boy for moral support. My best friend is trying to bully me into letting her come but I don't know if that will make me more nervous. I'm in my element with strangers, so having too many familiar faces is a big concern of mine.
I think I'd be the same. (In some parallel universe where I could even consider trying stand up.)
You're not going to tape it then, so we can see it after? 
Actually I probably will tape it for my own reference. If it goes well, I will let you see. If not, I will pretend the camera broke.
ACTUALLY, I could do with some help!!
Can anyone name some common misconceptions about women that comedians often use ? The hackier the better. Along the lines of "what's the deal with cushions?" that sort of thing.
*rearranges Status Report seats*
11 Always expect men to know what they're thinking.
12 Go out on terrifying hen nights lack a pack of wolves in high heels.
13 Consider eating chocolate a sin worthy of the Hague and possibly hanging.
14 Don't actually get jokes.
15 Read dreadful magazines like "smell her" or "take a dump" full of inspiring tales of women born without a minge or who marry serial killers.
16 View Sex and the City as the world's funniest comedy containing the secret of life.
17 Never buy chips but always steal some one elses.
18 Can talk for upto 2 hours to someone else and exchange no definable informaton, 4hours if it's a stranger.
19 Get raped when ever they use a minicab.
20 Like the world's most awful femal oriented R'n;B and related shit because it's empowering. When infact it sounds worse than Dappy from NDubz beating beaten to death with a hysterical cat.
Cheers you big sexist dickheads 
Actually those lists have made me a bit happy, as I confident that none of those points apply to me.

You made me do a squark laugh.
Squark?
Quote: Leevil @ August 21 2010, 8:30 PM BSTSquark?
Like a parrot. When a joke takes me by surprise, I tend to squark.
Would you like a cracker?

Do what? Is that a good thing?
21 Call other women sisters and then stab them in the back.
22 Don't believe gay men actually have sex with strangers in the dustbins behind saunas called "Caesar's Fist."
23 Obsess on the size of their bottoms.
24 Complain about wolf whistling builders and cry when they don't.
25 Demand the right to shoot arabs and join the army. But can't handle spiders.
26 Drink caffeine, milk and sugar free lattes. Why that's basically a glass of water.
