Being the whippersnapper that I am, I wasn't able to appreciate him before he died, and I won't gush on and on. Just a small reminder of why his anger, but mainly his warmth and compassion, is dearly missed.

dunno about this business of deifying him though.

He was a voice, and had such clarity of vision for the most part. He is worth remembering.

great comedy from some of the most simplest truths we all know. Shame he died.

EDIT - It's making me cringe watching it. It's like he takes the soul out and substitutes it with gurning.

which indicates to me that this is just the tip of the iceberg.

I believe the saying goes - Why is Denis Leary a star while Bill Hicks is unknown? Answer: Because there's no cure for cancer.

Jimmy Carr saying, in all sincerity, that Denis Leary is origional and people should stop comparing him to Hicks.
Cunts the pair of them. Of course, I thought No Cure for Cancer was the best comedy I had ever heard as a youngster, then I stumbled across Hicks. Never like Leary since.
