Brilliant post my friend.
You are right those guys are giants. Sadly I never got to see Bill live. Recently watched a lot of his stuff, including the documentary of his life. Rodney - No respect. That guy must have introduced me to more young comedians than I can remember in his 80's show young comedians that was on HBO. Rodney introduced me to Bobby Slayton, Jerry Seinfeld, Bobcat Goldthwaite, Rita Rudner and my man the legendary Sam Kinison, among the many of young up and coming stars. Gilbert - I'm sure you knew that he was college room mates with none other than, the Dice Man. Well I was fortunate to see Sam Kinison twice live. Both times in the San Francisco Bay Area, and he was as awesome as ever. That guy changed my life about comedy, I loved him so much. Had his first few albums, and all the standup video including the infamous Saturday Night Live hosting where he appeared with Seka. After he died, I spent a year in silent screams. (Quiet versions of Sam-imitations) In honor. Then, after a year or so, I went over to the dark side..... Little Boy Blew.....he needed the money. The master of Mother Goose nursery rhymes, Andrew Dice Clay. Loved his performance at Madison Square Garden, New York. Top o' the world, ma. I followed him for a number of years but unfortunately never saw him live. Thanks for your thread Greenskull. For some of us in life, if we don't laugh, we surely will cry. Now here is the guy I grew up listening to, Wally Londo himself, the Hippie Dippie Weatherman..... George Carlin May 12, 1937 - June 22, 2008 George Carlin was a comedian that made me laugh since I was a kid. Ever since I was about 10 or 11, that guy was something else. My brother and I had the albums "Class Clown" and "Occupation: Foole". These albums ended up being classics in the history of American comedy. His legendary 7 words you can't say on TV didn't go over well with my step father and mother. Funny to look back on that. He released them on Class Clown. He grew up in New York and was a teenager in the 1950's. This often worked well as reflection, and a springboard for comedy pieces for little boys to relate to, such as his youth in Catholic School in the 1940's. Those bits are unforgettable to me. His version of the New York accent was hilarious. The Bronx Cheer, the Raspberry, even the artificial fart under the arm. The guy was a king when you were little. He had been around for years before we heard of him. I don't even remember where we heard of him from, because he was like a hippie (a.k.a. the hippie dippie weather man) and we were just kids. I know he was in trouble with the law a lot. Years later his 7 words actually benefited some law for free speech! http://www.acsblog.org/news-and-anno...-19372008.html Then when we got older and started doing sports, this was the bomb: George's legendary bit on Baseball and Football http://www.baseball-almanac.com/humor7.shtml His performance in "Bill & Ted's Excellant Adventure", and "Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey" was stellar and he stole the show, dwarfing the two stars of the film with his brilliance, portraying Rufus, who's motto was "Be excellant to each other". (Actually laid out by the ancients Bill & Ted themselves.) He had appeared in a number of films and TV appearances. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0137506/ I only got to see him live once, in Las Vegas, Nevada. By then I was an adult and he was a senior citizen. The crowd gave a standing ovation, and encore. Some quotes by George Carlin: http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/au...ge_carlin.html George most likely wants us to look back on his life and think of the great laughs he gave us. I would like to laugh when I look back on the life and times of George Carlin, a real class act. As well as class clown, occupation: foole. Some performances on Google Video: http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...81223&q=&hl=en YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/results?searc...&search=Search George was 71 when he died. Rest in Peace brother. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Carlin |

Think this Giant best sums up mine and his own feelings on Jerry and the variety of his humour Gilbert as Jerry Seinfeld Jr on Howard Stern - Part 1 of 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wiNOOwjIN-E Gilbert as Jerry Seinfeld Jr on Howard Stern - Part 2 of 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PX6nyvAoGxs Although this is by far my favourite brilliant Gilbert video clip , and as usual it`s totally off the cuff with his only pauses being to dart his eyes to see if his camera is still rolling , well did you think he`d ever pay anyone to actually film him ? Legendary post-9/11 Gilbert Gottfried roast of Hugh Hefner http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1NRBWkmP74

Many thanks for that friend Trip and outstanding contribution by the way , i thought it was maybe about time this section had such a thread especially as these headliners more or less created the footprints other comedians have since tried to follow in. Erm who knows maybe this thread could even become a sticky ? ? ? Never had the privilege or opportunity of seeing the Legend Carlin ,Rodney Dangerfield or Sam Kinison . But i have watched Gilbert Gottfried and Andrew Dice Clay who i even met , although he was a bit out of it. Still nothing beats seeing Bill Hicks which i was lucky enough to do twice , ok something does and that was talking my way into meeting him backstage at Egham , i then actually spoke to him for nearly five minutes eventhough he was in a rush and heading off , oh and i shook his left hand ! Now i`ve most probably told everyone i know about this huge event (For me), although i`ve shortened the story for decency sake as usually i stretch it out for nearly half an hour Even now i still get an overwhemling sadness at his brutally early death , my god`s if only he`d been with us all this time , i mean the places he could have taken us man you know Anyway enough of this and time for another original comic colossal who i got the great chance to see live and also spoke to (Don`t worry this isn`t a running theme), found him as friendly as hell although he was as nervous off stage as he`d been on it , but i got to congratulate him on his work which i think he appreciated more than if i`d just gushed as i sorta wanted to .
