Biz as usual or standup renaissance?
Pete Timmerman, writing for PLAYBACKstl, reviews recently released standup DVD’s.
Recently, some great stand-up comedy DVDs have seen American release, such that there seems to be something of a renaissance in the field of stand-up comedians right now. (Just look at the out-of-nowhere success of films like the good-but-not-great Jesus Is Magic, or The Aristocrats.) Or maybe I’m mistaken, and stand-up never really went away.
Astute observations, especially about the late Bill Hicks, abound.
