Bill Hicks


Bill Hicks died far too young. Born December 15th, 1961 he passed on February 26th 1994 a victim of pancreatic and liver cancer. I'm posting a bunch of his work. I will say he's a bit edgy and his humor might offend some. Still, he's brilliant and ranges from the biting to the hilarious. I wish he'd lived. He'd have had a wonderful time skewering 9/11, the "Dubbya" administration and the war in Iraq among many other things. His insights were advanced for his age and time. His death was a great loss. This is from his 1993 London performance. There are two parts. Have a look at part one.
