"He might have been way better."
Bill didn't need to be better. He was awesome the way he was. If by 'better' you mean mass produced and accessible to stoners who spend all their time on Youtube and watching videos about the New World Order...

I seriously doubt he would have had a fucking youtube page. Although he toured endlessly, he wasn't for the fame. He spent years doing fucking dives in podunk hellholes 300 days a year. He did comedy because he loved his job, not because of any bullshit aspiration to be famous.
He told us everything we ever needed to know in those short 32 years. Aliens dropped him off in '61 and said "Okay Bill, teach these motherfuckers how it's done. We'll pick you up in 3 decades."

I was hoping he would offer to slit the sound guy's throat the next time that damn over gained re-verb happened for the fifth time!

Effortlessly funny set by a master. Damn, he was good.

@HeLovesCulture The movie based on American Scream is awesome. Just his friends and family, containing great footage from when he was really young.

@mikeisapro Dude have you ever listened to Bill Hicks? He trotted the same stuff out for years, he just honed it. I love the man, but watching him on tv shows was painful as he churned out punch lines you've been listening to for years.

@Lvduggo69 I wrote a message to his mother after he died and she sent me the sweetest little handwritten letter back. Chuffed.

Someone should make his parents have another kid. Even if it ment at gunpoint.
I saw that fucking David letterman interview with bills mom. It was great to se Dave look so fuckin stupid saying how he screwed up by not letting bills last show go out on the air.
Boy oh fuckin boy ! Bills mom is sooooooo funny ! I mean , I can tell where he got his great sence of humor and calling out the man from her. His dad was a bit dull in other interviews. But that mom of his ? Great !
Perfect material to the perfect crowd.

fascinating document filmed with a camera from 1914 and early, experimental sound recording techniques!
