Mine is Dave Chappelle, his two stand-ups "Killing them Softly" and "For What is Worth" are ****!n awesome...in the first one when he's talking about been left in the hood in a limousine and he sees a baby at the corner at 3am and he yells "HEY BABY...WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON THE CORNER AT 3AM..." and the baby yells "I'M SELLING WEED *****"... :D :D :D

Ever - Bill Hicks

He was more than a stand up comedian. He was like the Socrates of this generation. Shame he died too soon.

Right Now - Lewis Black/Dave Chapelle.

Jamie Foxx-I might need security had me rolling from open to close.

Mike Epps-I seen him in Toledo, He did a pretty good job his set was to long though and got old fast.

Chris Rock-Hilarious and had his moments

****tiest stand up ever award goes to: Jerry Seinfeld, Seen him about a year and a half ago and was the most boring and dull thing I have ever witnessed.

Jamie Foxx is an awesome actor and a real smart guy (he's a classical pianist, for crying out loud). Even in the sup-par flick Any Given Sunday he was great.

Here's hoping he wins the Oscar this year.

Pryor most definitely. My pops used to play his old records back in the early 80's when I was a kid.

Dave Chappelle is the most creative stand up I've seen in a while. Been checking him out since the first time I saw him on Def Comedy Jam in the early 90's.

Richard Pryor is definitely the best I have ever seen after that it would have to be Paul Rodriguez.

He did stand up all the time in the 60's, but he's also did some regular shows during the 80's as well.

Current Favorite Stand-ups

Doug Stanhope
George Carlin
Steven Wright
Jeff Foxworthy
Eddie Griffin
Joe Rogan
Wendy Liebman
Margaret Cho

Past Favorite Stand-Ups

Bill Hicks
Sam Kinison
Richard Pryor
Lenny Bruce
Sinbad

4-star Comedy: George Carlin's "Jammin' in New York", Robin Williams "A Night at the Met"

Decent concert films: Eddie Murphy Raw, Notorious C.H.O., DysFunktional Family, Blue Collar Comedy Tour: The Movie

Bill Hicks gets the nod over Carlin for gold. Richard Pryor the bronze

It has to be a tossup between Dave Chappelle and maybe Chris Rock.

I would be unfairly witholding a tremendous treasure if I didn't devote a post to singing the praises of the stand-up concert film I just saw, Doug Stanhope: Word of Mouth.

You can get it at Sacred Cow's website or off Doug's website. Or get a bootleg or download it off Kazaa or something. It's the steadiest flow of top-notch monologue I've ever seen. It's also the closest thing to verbal ****ography I've seen, making Margaret Cho's Notorious C.H.O. and most of Martin Lawrence's stuff look PG-13.
