    I enjoy Will Ferrell. I know it might not be sophisticated, but still it makes me laugh. The name of the band I'm in Lucy and the Tanks, comes from Old School. Frank the Tank was the boss.
    Music is what feelings sound like.

    Dave Chappelle is the best stand-up comedian ever...

    He's my favorite too...Of course I love George Carlin, Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy (back in the day), and Chris Rock, but there's something about Dave Chapelle that makes me giggle every time.

    I miss his show. :cry:
    Show #13 was a lucky one for me....

    Billy Connolly!

    Absolutely! He is one funny man. I love how he paces all over the stage and goes off on the longest tangents and always comes back to what he was talking about.

    Surprised no mention of Dana Carvey. He cracks me up.

    Dave Chappelle. His "Killing Them Softly" special is some of the funniest stuff I've ever seen and heard.

    Eddie Murphy, back during the Delirious and Raw days.

    I'll throw in some Andrew Dice Clay.

    My latest favorite comedians are Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David. I hope to see Jerry at Foxwoods in December. And I am hoping Larry makes a return to stand up. He said he wants to.

    I went to see Dana Carvey's stand up back when Wayne's World was around...he did the "choppin' broccoli" thing...it was hilarious.

    Peace
    hands down, Richard Prior is my favorite. No one else is even close.

    I didn't even noticed I posted in here...Richard Pryor was funny just from some of his facial expressions. :D:lol::D

    In 2004, Pryor was voted #1 on Comedy Central's list of the 100 Greatest Stand-ups of All Time.
