Bill Hicks would have been 48 today.

the above post demonstrates why hicks is vastly overrated.

A very funny man, it was a sad day for all bar Denis Leary when he died.

Didn´t get him myself.

Bill Hicks is dead yet Alan Carr lives on. Where's the justice?

Btw, can't believe that he would've only been 48... would've thought it to be closer to 55. Died too young.

inspiration in my life.

Still as Ballyskeagh Stevie? Must be a lot of drunk office party s kank around there these nights

Great comedian imo.

no RR
was eating into my social life. plus too many moaners in the place. stopped u even doing a bet , so got a bit pointless.
will be at the races on stephens day though :)
and smithfield over the holidays , if your about gimme a shout for a beer

Think his stock is inflated due to his early death.

I'm not so sure. Funny is funny imo, I can't laugh because at the back of my mind I know the comic died young. It doesn't draw a laugh. Dying young can make a musicians lyrics more poignant and thus become more popular ,but make a comic's material funnier ? Nah.

bill hicks was a genius. RIP

he was funny before he died :)
was a show on channel 4 that he did that i first got into him.
still have it on vhs somewhere. then went to see him alive in belfast about 2 years later.

Bill Hicks? I've never even heard of him :0

Loads of bootlegs on free download sites, A great one in Chicago when he lose's it with the audience.

Hicks famously told an interviewer: "I have a scoop for you. I stole his [Leary's] act. I camouflaged it with punchlines, and to really throw people off, I did it before he did."[29

:)

Bill Hicks is the truth baby, Consult yourself for the truth and dont place your faith in propaganda organs of corrupt governments! "Going from the cradle to the grave without experiencing the physchdelic experience is like going from the cradle the grave without ever experiencing sex"!!! Yeah baby his energy and message lives on strong

nope, still never heard of him :|

what are you trying to say Tev?

Look him up mate. Some of his stuff could be viewed as prophetic as

regards war and politics etc, if it wasn't for the fact that the same old story

has been played out by similar characters with similar names ! :D

I like that. :)

I'll show you politics in America. Here it is, right here.

"I think the puppet on the right shares my beliefs."
"I think the puppet on the left is more to my liking."

"Hey, wait a minute, there's one guy holding out both puppets!"

"Shut up! Go back to bed, America. Your government is in control. Here's Love Connection. Watch this and get fat and stupid. By the way, keep drinking beer, you fecking morons."
