I love Bill Hicks
But most of the live shows I've seen repeat a lot from the previous shows. I think in Bill's case the fact that he burned out rather than fade away helped his fame. Much like Cobain, I still see 13 year old mini moshers wearing nirvana hoodies, I predict that if they were still making "music" today that no-one would give a fuck.
