It’s always funny until someone gets hurt.
Then it’s just hilarious, etc.
Do you miss Bill Hicks?
Johnny Keenan, him off the telly, writes:

Artists who play from their fupping heart in the guise of comedy poetry and song.
A panel discussion on the career and legacy of the comedy god will throw an eye on one of his epic quotes and philosophical musings ‘Listen, the next revolution is gonna be a revolution of ideas‘.
Video Tributes and Montage
A QandA with Bill’s brother via skype. Steve Hicks will answer any question you ever had about the comedy legend.
A live portrait by David Heffernan Artist will be raffled to raise funds for The Bill Hicks Wildlife Foundation (www.billhicks.org).ll Performers and Contributors give up their time and fee to appear in respect of Bill Hicks….
In fairness.
Tickets €12 here
The greatest ever stand up imho, would love to know what direction he would have taken had he not passed at such a young age.
I wonder at what stage he would have punched Denis Leary
Absolutely dude

Sorry.
Better dust down that 2 hour transcript again. Luckily; 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. So Mr. Lee is, as always, half right, when condensed to a slow vibration.
Well said Hicksonian. What a name btw. In fairness to Stewart Lee he is a big Hicks fan.
As the organiser of this event. I am proud to hear see read and meet the most wonderful of people who are inspired and influenced by Bill Hicks. There will be a lot of love and energy in The Grand Social tonight. It’s amazing how Bill’s popularity and legacy is growing day by day. His philosophy and music we will be taping into and of course his straight talking and hilarious comedy will be the inspiration for over 20 Comics, Poets, Singers, Contributors. Special guest is Bills Brother Steve Hicks. And of course Bill will make an appearance or 2 ir 3. All door/online/raffle receipts go to ‘The Bill Hicks Wildlife Foundation’
Thanks for the promo Broadsheet.
Best of luck with it Johnny, hope it’s a huge success.
This is my little attempt at remembering Bill (created one day in office way back in the summer of 2002)..Bill Hicks…legend

Good luck with tonight Johnny. Send Mr. Lee a shout out for next year’s event. He’d fit in nicely amongst that line up. Some great names in there. It looks set to be a doozy of an evening.
