Sorry, I'm more of a Rich Vos fan

I've been wanting to see him live for a while but I never know what dates he's playing.

Bruce, Pryor, Carlin, Vos. The top 4 greatest.

You ever actually listen to Lenny Bruce? Sometimes I get the feeling people only say they like Bruce because they think they're supposed to as fans of standup. The shit did not hold up over time.

You ever listen to most Pryor and Carlin? It's one dude saying nigger and pussy and the other telling you how it is, despite being wrong for the most part.

Not a huge fan of Carlin, personally. I think he's overrated. Like that, "Things you never hear" bit. Literally just come up with crazy sounding things to say. Absolutely zero effort.

I'm assuming this is going from 4th-1st.

Is it true that he eats da coochie?

He's got a great 15 minutes on Qantas airlines.

On the subject of unreleased Carlin material, anyone know what happened with Carlin's last book, Watch My Language? According to Wikipedia, it was supposed to come out in 09, but still hasn't been released.

Other than his autobiography, all his books were just transcripts of his act, probably not missing much. Didnt know he had new material coming out though, thats pretty fuckin sweet.

A good chunk of it was just stuff from his acts but not all of it. The rest of it was original material that wouldn't have translated well into stand up.

What fucking narcissism to release transcripts of your standup!

What? Sure? I wasn't trying to imply anything, just that if you've heard his stand up, the books aren't anything new.

Narcissism on his part.

I could never get enough of the "burning down the House of Blues" bit

where?

what is sirius xm?

is that like aol?

fuck.

he's dead

You're kidding...

i just signed up for a 30 day trial on sirius xm's site. only had to give my email address. logged in and the carlin station is streaming.

downloaded the app from the google play store and the account worked there, too.

Welcome to the scam many of us have used for years

There's a reason entertainers don't release every fuckn thing they record.some shit is just shit.Hey you fuckn greedy no talent relatives stop trying to make money off of the dead.remember the lost Hendrix tapes just shit.

The thing is, this is a polished hour, not a b-side like with most of 2pac's stuff. According to the article anyway.

Great, this means I will probably hear something for Kelly Carlin in the near future. I don't need that.

He stinks.

And you don't like him?

Carlin isn't that great

Yea, neither are tits or vagina, amiright?

Pre-1990 Carlin was overrated as hell. If you're speaking of Carlin from 1990 until his death, you're a dumb faggot whose opinion I cannot respect. They should cut off Lincoln's dumb head on the Lincoln Memorial and put Carlin's on just for the amount of brilliant shit he churned out in the 90's.
