hicks did brilliant work in the 80's so you are essentially correct. his career was about 1980-1993. and brooks became well known in 1969 so again, my bad.

thanks for harshing my mellow.

my point was that foster brooks was a one note appeal to the lowest common denominater. he was as funny as cat crap on a radiator.

replace lenny bruce with richard pryor. same point.

bill hicks is irreplaceable.
