Just wanted to get people starting about their favorite stand up acts. For me it has to be Lewis Black, his stage presence is unbelievable. What do you guys like/recomend? Also, check out Pablo Francisco, he does the moviefone voice better than the actual guy.
It's like technology, versus horse.

Lewis ****ing Black is awesome- and, seriously, is hands down my favorite. He was doing a gig here in Williamsport about a month and a half ago- I'm so pissed I didn't get to go. ****ing a..Lewis Black is the man. Robin Williams, dispite being absolutely famous, is great too. I've watched Live on Broadway soooooo many times. Dennis Leary, too. ****ing a. Pablo is good, I've only seen him on Comedy Central though.

Live on Broadway was unbelievable. He talked for 3 hours straight...went through about 50 bottles of water...and split 4 guts.

I saw Lew in concert a couple months ago. Guy is the real deal. Dane Cook is another guy I really like, but his act gets old after a while.

i like dane cook, because he leaves EVERYTHING on the stage. if he got up there and no was laughing i believe strongly he would kill himself for a laugh. audience interaction is funny too, asking people if they boot black tar heroin was pretty funny.chuck
