My love of Hicks just keeps growing. I can't wait to see it. It's strange that it's been out so long yet I only just the other day heard about it.
What I think I admire most about Hicks, besides of course his way to turn very serious philosophic issues into hilarity, is how fearless he was in saying what he said. There are VERY few people who would have the courage to constantly push people's thresholds and put up with the consequences. I can only imagine how much shit people gave him for it.
-------------------- The very nature of experience is ineffable; it transcends cognitive thought and intellectualized analysis. To be without experience is to be without an emotional knowledge of what the experience translates into. The desire for the understanding of what life is made of is the motivation that drives us all. Without it, in fear of the experiences what life can hold is among the greatest contradictions; to live in fear of death while not being alive.

Me too Twirling...I just love him. The DVD apparently just came out like a month ago so it hasn't been out long. I have seen one or two of those specials due to bittorent though.
I totally agree with you about his fearlessness. I mean, he was a comedian, but unlike any I have ever heard...I mean he would say tons of things knowing that it was going to piss the hell out of people and probably make them hate him, thereby making him much less successful...I mean all good comedians piss people off, but his was a new level and intensity, it was like he was preaching...but I'm sure it wasn't about the money for him, but about spreading his knowledge to as many as he could. Too bad he was taken from us so early.

I love the guy. He's right up there with George CArlin. Yet Hicks holds a little more of a special place than even carlin in my heart and soul.

He was a genius - a modest genius, hence his career. He still is in my mind.
I've seen the DVD of one of his last stand ups, in Houston, Texas, I believe, he knew he was dying at the time, yet still insisted on soldiering on.
Also - buy the book - Love All the People.
