Sam Kinison was a genius.

[qoidjgf]

henry rollins is my favourite so far.

 

[zoooo]

But... what other Michael McIntyre is there??

 

[N_igma]

Why has no one mentioned Billy Connolly yet? Fucking hilarious.

 

[Structaural]

Why has no one mentioned Billy Connolly yet? Fucking hilarious.

bit obvious really, first comic to make me cry laughing though

 

[Badgers]

Watched Izzard last night and always enjoy him.
Connelly is mostly great but occasionally awful.

 

[zed]

no one's recommended Doug Stanhope? then I will

Doug Stanhope is the greatest living stand-up.

 

[rhod]

Pablo Francisco - brings his material to life with some very good voices and characters. A bit like early Robin Williams in that respect.

 

[MooChild]

Bees nicked all my favorites

Mitch Hedberg
Steve Hughes
Louis CK
Bill Hicks
Dylan Moran
Ross Noble

 

[King Biscuit Time]

Anyone fancy upping some stuff via www.senduit.com or similar?
I'll have a look through my stuff later and do likewise.

 

[hermitical]

Gilbert Gottfried

 

[Wintermute]

Tim Minchin. A sort of younger, Australian Bill Bailey with less wizard and more emo. Russell Howard is fucking funny, and Tim Vine... I can see why people might find it a bit tiresome after a while, but his delivery of one-liners is brilliant.

 

[fogbat]

Simon Munnery - comedy god.

 

[trevhagl]

Frankie Boyle
Bill Hicks
Jerry Sadowitz
Arnold Brown
