These guys went WAY to early. There are some really great comedians out there but these two are by far my favorites. Bill Hicks died of cancer in the early 90's. If you've seen Dennis Leary's old standup (which he made his trademark) you would realise that he's nothing but a Hicks ripoff. The chain smoking, the overwhelming pessimism, the overall dark imagery, dirty as Sam Kinison. Long story short, he lifted his image from Bill Hicks. Oh well. Mitch Hedberg died in 2005 of an overdose. He had a completely original look, delivery, and presence. Detatched but still warm. Makes me laugh til it hurts.
Check out: "Arizona Bay" by Bill Hicks and "Do You Believe in Gosh?" by Mitch Hedberg.
This a guest appearence by Mitch Hedberg on "That 70's Show".
Did i forget to mention that I FUCKING HATE RUSSELL BRAND.
