The audio was looped the first time I uploaded this video. Surprised that doesn't happen more often since 99% of the time I edit and upload, I'm drunk. Thanks for the heads up everyone.
"Pot is a better drug than alcohol. Fact! … I’ll prove it to you. If you’re at a ball game or a concert and someone’s really violent and aggressive and obnoxious, are they drunk or are they smoking pot? [The crowd answers “Drunk.”] Wow! We all know the truth." - Bill Hicks(1961-94)
+David Hopwood that quote right there highlights how wise and ballsy Hicks was, and I loved his earlier stuff. I did start to lose respect for him later when I saw ego and self indulgence starting to spill into the show. This is when hero worship starts to ruin people, when they believe their own hype. It's why I respect Louis CK. He recently said he would rather play bad venues where he needs to win the crowd over, because it drives him to keep making good material, and not resting on his laurels, instead of going places where people just laugh because they already love him.
+David Hopwood People who say Hicks sucks have no idea how terrible/boring/unfunny comedy was in the late 80s/early 90s. He was WAY ahead of his time, and comedy as it is today owes a lot to Bill.
Doug Stanhope is fucking awesome! It's even better when he's with Bill Burr on the MMPC because these guys are awesome! Thanks for the uploads! I love 'em!
Does Bill not realize that his popularity is based upon his cynicism and negativity? There was a certain point where his comedy changed about 10 years ago. Maybe his decision not to be so negative is the reason why. Definitely not a bad thing for his life but not so great for his comedy
