Bill Hicks – Revelations
Posted on: December 7, 2008
Bill Hicks’ follow-up show to Relentless, recorded at the Dominion Theatre in London.
Bill coined the now classic quote; “Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Here’s Tom with the weather.”
Along with Andy Kaufman and Steven Wright, Bill Hicks is one of the most redeeming factors of American comedy. Forget about your John Belushi’s or Tim Allen’s or Robin Williams, Hicks was the real deal and angry, sensitive, rip-roaringly funny, acerbic comedic talent of epic proportions. He always delivered true and razor sharp social commentary cleverly disguised as stand-up comedy. Hicks was no-holds barred comedy, trampling upon his audience with a barage of put-downs and come-back lines. Where as most comedians stop at the punchline, Hicks went that one step further and punched the punchline. A man full of contradictions: loved his mum and pap, but ruthlessly satirised them in his stand-ups; was full of venom and bile on stage, but was achingly sensitive and caring off; In short Hicks was a maestro.

I watch this 3 times a week, it keeps me sane. Bill was so right. He’s one of the only people I feel a deep regret for not having met. RIP
