@nktrygg I know, but they already knew each other by then. George Carlin met him right at the beginning of his career, at, if my memory serves me right, a recording studio. I read it in carlins autobigraphy
-
they did meet when they were arrested at Lenny's show - Carlin refused to show is ID to the cops who were not only arresting Lenny, but trying to find reasons to pull the licenses of the clubs that hired him - part of that was IDing the customers to charge the club for serving minors.

don't worry, we're back to the same socio-political conditions - so ya are Blanche, ya are
-
Lenny ain't no Borscht Belt comic!
-
@rohgenextfan Carlin said he never met Bruce.
-
@rohgenextfan That is not when they first met. Carlin met lenny bruce many years before when he first came to LA.
-
Big Fan, wish i could have been around back then!
-
@rohgenextfan I did not know that, thats very interesting... seems they had some good conversations about coverups.
-
@sina126 Yup, me too. Damn, Carlin's book is such a great read. Can't believe I hadn't heard about Lenny Bruce before, this guy is hilarious! Great stuff indeed.
-
No, not before reading your comment.
I'm considering downloading his audio books from torrents ;) .
I did a quick research about him on Wikipedia and other places and he sounded pretty interesting.
Which one of his books do you recommend?
I always found it very pleasant to share my opinions with people who have read the same book as I did.

I just discovered this man.
What really strikes me is when I looked at pictures, and watch the little of footage that there is from him. It is all black and white, cause they're old. The sound unclean.
He lived in a time that's a littler longer ago. Not so long, but still..
But then, I listen to what he says... and it's so strange, because it doesn't feel the same way as the pictures and the film footage. It's way ahead of them. It's way ahead of our time.
The things that he says.

Carlin and Bruce were both locked up at the same show and were in the same police car. That's when they first met.
