I guess i just view bill hicks and dane cook as different people and therefore separate performers so i have no reason to dislike one because i would never judge one based on the other.
I am a listener to alex jones program and am a fan of bill hicks. I disagree with about half of Jones claims (eugenics, 9/11 inside job, but i agree w bilderberg and NWO).
Bill and Alex are a lieele different, they are both semi libertarians but bill leans to the left and alex leans to the right.
And while they are both anti establishment and anti nwo, alex is a little more extreme.
Dont get me wrong though because Alex does make some good points sometimes
It is one confusing mess, I agree with that, But it really rubs my goat that some on the far right are posing in Hick's clothes. Hicks may not have been altogether sane or even very correct sometimes. But he came from a good place of human dignity and respect. The far right are about the rich not paying tax and fundamentalist dogma. Totally unlike Bill, he may have criticized and woken people up. but he loved democracy and equality, his deism was about the world becoming dignified as a whole
fiendlin06, Jones stood for the republicans in Texas in 2000, just months before 911. He appeared on all national outlets and drew the anti war movement against the UN, and into the most obscure trash. Do your research! Do the right not argue that: Haliburton should not pay tax. Haligurton should not be regulated. those with property should have power. democracy is mod rule. - these are far right corp state policies, way uncool. conspiracy. It is how Hitler and religious right got power too
How dare you compare a genius of intellect and comedy like Hicks, to a nasty and stupid right wing conspiracy nut like Jones.
Alex Jones is a fundamentalist (which he strangely never mentions although he was involved in the church of David Koresh), he lead the anti war movement into complete obscurity.
Jones wants the rich to keep their bonuses, religious courts and laws, to end welfare.
All the crap Bill Hicks hated.
wake up, Alex Jones is the biggest fraud around. Ask yourself who benefits.
Fair enough, truth in practical everyday life is pretty relative. Thats why its important not to get too attached to our perceptions or beliefs about "reality". Maybe I was being a clever-clogs before, but I dont mind updating my point of view now and then when necessary...
Now THIS is a guy with principles. I think a good test of just how good of an entertainer someone is would be if they took that wad of 20's or not. No real self respecting comedian would let someone do that and get away with the money.
"the truth is what you believe to be true"... Thats exactly what truth ISNT. If you believe something, that doesnt make it true. You DO create your own relative reality based on your beliefs, mind-sets, fears, prejudices, loves, hates, but that "personal universe" is not the same thing as "truth". Truth, by definition, is absolute and never bends to suit anybody's ego. I think the misunderstanding here is over the definition of the word "truth".
That the big lie. You think it's YOUR reality. It's just reality, man. How you perceive it is irrelevant.
That's the problem with people. Self obsessed narcissists walking around like the universe owes them something. Like the way they see the world matters. I don't care if you're the president, you're still the tiniest blip on an infinite radar and then you're gone forever. Nothing. Pathetic ego-driven fools falling into the abyss.

wahhh wahhhhhhh, someone said something I dont like, Im going to use the F word, that will make it all better. You know why you use that word, because your angry and you dont know why. The truth is you have no reason to be. give me one. I say hicks sucks, so what, so fucking what. AS HICKS HIMSELF may HAVE SAID IF HE SAW THIS SHIT THERE ARE BIGGER PROBLEMS. People worship Hitler and the guy was an under achiever for christ sake. your all acting like you gave birth to him or something, get real .

god damn it isaac!!! sorry my "friend" has been getting on my youtube account as of late leaving stupid comments! i apologize and completely agree! bill hicks is my hero and if you dont believe me how do you think my friend found this in my favorites?
The entire small portion of this back stage interview can be found on the Sane Man DVD (here in North America, the Region-1 release) from RycoDisk. It's a great DVD. Hope I helped my fellow lover Goat Boy lover ...
Hey. So I DL'd Sane Man and this footage isn't on there. Can't find anything called the 'region-1 release'. Is there anything else I might look for to find this?
Well Region-1 is our North American DVD zone. DVD's are coded with technological regions. our's just happens to be one. The footage, the complete of this behind the scenes segment, is on the Extras, along with a benefit show for a guy named Author and extended Sane Man bits and a small comedy performance from '87 in Houston.
In response to Ricks550 saying he "only liked 25% of Bill's material", I will say this: Bill Hicks was not a great comic. He was a great MAN. Some of his routines were funny, some were not so funny. I've watched a lot of Bill's routines, and I find myself smiling and nodding and THINKING a lot more than I find myself guffawing with laughter. What made Bill special was the fact that he always spoke with wisdom, integrity and fearlessness, and these things are good for our souls.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I like 25% of his material....I've listened to them all (ie most comedians), and I think his material was limited to sensationalism for the most part. People raise him up to a level that's not deserved, imo.
it's mostly not about his material. it's the way he gave the middle finger to what's taken for granted in society and presented a better way of thinking. that he could make people laugh at the same time with a smile on his face was just the icing on the cake.
What? fuck u Ricks550. Thats your opinion on him, he made the truth funny, even when he said something sooo deep you wouldnt know whether to sit there shocked or laugh. He was a true genius. Unlike these fkn fundamentalist you see these days.
Hey Rick, which type of material do you like better? You've caused quite a stir with your opinion, but yet you've failed to fully express it. It's usually not a good idea to say one thing is bad, but without saying which is better. And by the way "most comedians" are the ones raising him up to that level. His peer respect:fan ratio is second to none IMO.
This is cool where did you get this? When is it from? Looks like the late 80s sometime. It's cool to see him just hanging out rapping not up on stage entertaining a crowd.
it was bill's birthday on the 16th , and he would be around 45, he died so young too, such a shame, he is becoming even more relevant aswell, r.i.p great clip
which he kinda coined himself too when hes talking about his dead heros.. the only part of an one of his acts that almost puts a lump in my throat. RIP never forgotten
He's so refreshing. I only recently discovered Bill, but with every video I see, I realize more and more what a rare talent he was. I wish I had known him, or could have had a conversation with him. Even with something as simple as anecdotes about shows, I find myself connecting with him right away. We need more people like him around.
I guess i just view bill hicks and dane cook as different people and therefore separate performers so i have no reason to dislike one because i would never judge one based on the other.
