Bill Hicks' Last Show - Part 3

From what I know this bootleg may be the last recorded performance before Bill Hicks' death, February 26, 1994.

Part 3 of 7:
Here he talks more about being censored, performs other bits that has been cut from his acts by "standards and practices", and talks about the content of his acts.

Late Show with David Letterman on January 30th 2009, they had Bill's mother, Mary Hicks on the show, and they played the segment that was cut from the show October 1st 1993.

All I can say is "Finally". Finally some respect for the late, great Bill Hicks. Dave was very apologetic toward Mary Hicks, and she was great and lovely, and handled Dave's questions very well, being much stronger and more direct than Dave expected.

The clips are in my favorites in case anyone is interested.

im going on 17 years old and ending my junior year of high school and i have learned more from listening to bill hicks. george carlin, doug stanhope, etc. than i ever have in school.

I'm very happy to hear that. Bill already knew he was dying when he did this last show. It was his last-ditch effort to get his message heard. And what a profound message it is. It's a shame that such a brilliant man has gone so unnoticed. Bill should be taught out of text books in schools around the word. Listening to this one show would do more for kids than 12 years of school ever could.

@binloved not to burst your bubble or anything but he had been on the letterman show around 8 times before that according to his documentary.

It's pretty bad, but I don't think there is any big conspiracy behind it.

ur right.. standards n practices = much smarter censorship than just worrying about offending people.. its about controlling ideas. n dont hate to mention conspiracy thats part of the deal u associate conspiracy with "incorrect" or "crazy", when many "theories" are entirely plausible.
