Goat Boy Rides tonight.
"Totally Bill Hicks" was his last UK performance before at 11.20pm on Saturday 26th February he died from cancer in Little Rock, Arkansas. This DVD is fantastic testament to his precise, sharp and true comedy.
The documentary is good but kind of leaves a bitter taste in the mouth of geek fans like me, as Hicks receives platitudes from David Letterman (on who’s show Hick’s material was censored and eventually an entire slot axed) and Jay Leno (Someone Bill grew to despise as he also was to censor Hicks) both people that Bill was hurt by in his career and life. Sadly I don’t believe the documentary does him justice and is a little dull in places.
The Stand up section of this DVD is where you will find the pleasure of a comedy God firing out jokes with supreme timing and amazing rhythm. It is not for the easily offended people out there but every line every story rings with an honesty and true belief in what Hicks is saying that I defy any comedy fan of reasonable intelligence to find him not only thought provoking but utterly hilarious. It is also funny how so much of it still rings true with a different George Bush and a new gulf war. Try this and Bill will not let you down. One of the true geniuses of our time, Rest in Peace Bill. -
