eddie murphy
oswalt patton
ok ok some of dane cooks stuff is pretty good but i dont see him as this great comic genius everyone is making him out to be. if you can think of anyone know a days who is actually being a real comic and making people really laugh and not just rehashing ten min sitcom pitches and writing joke songs. then by all means let me know if i missed someone. cause watching comedy central or seeing a lot of the crap that comes into best buy that is called comedy is fucking trash, if it was music itd be winger or nelson compared to like slayer or johnny cash. wtf
and now id like to take this chance to give props to both scott and robb from teratism for trying to do their parts to bring real comedy back !

what about that Posehn dude that Relapse just signed or whatever? I like the dude's schtick and he appears to be troo.

Dane Cook is a rip off artist. He steals some bits verbatim from Louis CK (a pretty good comic). Listen to "Live at Houston" from Louis CK and Dane Cook's new one. Some of the jokes are pretty much exactly the same and Louis has been doing those jokes for years.
Zach Galifianakis is really funny. Kind of reminds me of a Mitch Hedberg in his randomness. He does a really good job reacting to, and then focusing in on, the audience. Sean, I have a whole hour of his standup (no tracks, sorry) bootlegged from him. It's pretty funny.
Jim Gaffigan is good for some laughs. I can think of some more...it's not totally desolate...just mostly.
[Apr 30,2006 8:44pm - brian_dc ""]
I can send you some stuff from louis ck and jim gaffigan too if you're interested.
[Apr 30,2006 8:47pm - whiskey_weed_and_women ""]
yeah ive seen a lil from Louis, hes pretty decent and it seems every couple of years comcis will steal bits i mean look at Dennis Leary.
ive only seen like one think on comedy central from Zach, it was cool id watch/listen to some more.
Jim is def not my cup of tea.

For anyone who doesn't know:
David Cross - Last I heard, he had publicly denounced Larry The Cable Guy, and wrote an open letter to him about how much he sucks.
Sam Kinison - Killed by a drunk driver 6 days after his wedding. It's a shame, that guy was great
Richard Pryor - died last December :(
Lenny Bruce - Dead :(
George Carlin - Just released a new HBO special late last year
Robin Williams - Watched him on the Daily Show the other night, apparently he's going out on tour again
Mitch Hedberg - Dead :(
Rodney Dangerfield - Dead :(
Redd Foxx - Dead :(
Eddie Murphy - Does shitty family movies. Kinda sad how Aries Spears' impression on Eddie Murphy is funnier than Eddie Murphy
Patton Oswald - I saw his latest Comedy Central Special....it was pretty funny
[Apr 30,2006 8:51pm - SeedBassist ""]
and....Zakk Galifinakis is fucking hysterical

eddie murphy used to be amazing, its a shame that his brother is now funnier then himself and for that matter. i should have put Chappelle on that list too.
i love that motherfuckers show

Lewis Black is amazing as well. I saw him at Hampton Beach in 04, when it was a horrible storm outside and lightning struck the electrical wires outside, and the current carried through the microphone and shocked Lewis....he fucking FLIPPED OUT

Eddie Izzard is fucking brilliant. and Dane Cook is a jerkoff. his stand up is just him yelling about something stupid for 10 minutes at a time.

Hofstetter's cd just came out. "Cure for the Cable Guy"
