I was in New York and I remember hearing about a set.
They were like Doug Stanhope's in town.
And it was the most amazing thing I've ever seen where for 45 minutes he's bombing.
He's bombing so hard that Todd Berry and...
Oh my God, skanks for the memories.
Atel, or in the back.
And he's asking them, would you guys mind coming on stage at the end and doing some time so the audience feels like they have a show?
And they're just like, they don't know what to say.
But it's like 45 minutes of bombing and then all of a sudden,
Stan Hope just like turns on a dime and just starts ranting about his career and complaining and then murders They were like murders for 45 minutes and it was the best show they've ever seen.
Yeah, and yeah I don't know why people are too fucking stupid.
They got to have a picture of him up there, but okay Okay, that makes a little more sense
And I was like, that's incredible to bomb for 45 and then have the whole audience, even comics being like, oh my God, and then turning it around.
And I went to go see him the next night and it was just 45 minutes of him doing a set.
Like, I think he really just had a bad time that night and was able to pull it out.
But I think stand up, I think is the greatest.
The greatest.
He's your favorite comic.
I think he's the best.
My favorite comics are guys like Dangerfield, Stephen Wright, the guys who were true one-liner joke guys.
