DKB Explains His Failed Comedy Set

Comedian, DKB explains his failure to make patrons laugh at the second edition of Glo’s Laffta Fest.

According to him, the comedian who performed before him extracted all the laughter out of the audience.

Therefore, he apologised to the audience for not lifting up his game on the night.

According to reports, all the jokes he shared were unimpressive and some of the patrons booed him.

He explained what happened on the night on Hitz @1 on Hitz FM. Acccording to him, Dan D Humurous, who performed before him, exceeded his time of performance. Therefore, this made the audience tired.

DKB talks about his performance and tiredness of audience

“I always respect the opinion of the audience. I try to appreciate the fact that they made an effort to come and see me perform but unfortunately, it didn’t go as planned. They were laughing but the standard of response I was expecting, I didn’t get it.” 

“I’m the type who doesn’t like sharing blame. I always believe that I’m responsible for the spot I’m given and have to take full charge of it but what happened was that, the comedian before me overstayed his time twice. He stayed for a pretty long time so he drained the laughter out of the audience so when I came in, it looked like the people were sort of tired.” 

“The energy was a bit low. However, at the end of the day, I was given that spot as a comedian. Therefore, I must be a magician and that’s why I decided to apologize to the audience.” 

Also, the comedian denied reports that the audience booed him offstage hence his apology to the audience.

“No no, nobody booed. When I noticed the energy was not coming as expected, it got me a little anxious on stage, I had some serious anxiety. I felt pressed and pressured so I decided to call the elephant in the room (by asking what the problem was) and it gave some people the opportunity to boo but I shut them up.”
