Ah yes, Carpet Remnant World. Most of my friends think it's the best thing he's ever done, whereas I think it's his flattest show in years. That said, it's still a million times better than most other stand-up shows.
It's interesting you say that. I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy it but I know what you mean. The pace of the show is certainly very different. My wife's not much of a fan and usually finds him quite tedious (which amuses me no end) but she really enjoyed this show.
I think of Bill Hicks as the Catcher in the Rye of comedy. Something you should love as a fifteen-year-old and eventually look back on and think, "well, it was great when I was fifteen".
I hear you, but it's like Jurassic Park to me. It just never gets old, even if it's nostalgia speaking.
You have to admit though, that the Jay Leno rant on the album is still fresh, relevant, and hysterical today.
I also really like Dana Carvey. Of course, The master of Disguise was a bad movie. But Dana made it watchable because he did fantastic at his role(s)! It's because of him I bump my rating of that movie from a 1 to a 4.
Of the past, surely: BOB HOPE, LUCILLE BALL, ARCHIE BUNKER (character in All in the family, a great 70s TV show), BUD & COSTELLO
Of the present, surely: Whoopy Goldberg, Jim Carey..... _________________ Wine, WOMEN and song
