Funny stories

I have always loved the music of Todd Snider. Todd Snider - The Official Website He always writes songs from the working person's perspective. He has a lot of good, powerful songs about current social issues. I like his musical style also-a mix of country, blues and folk. He also has a great sense of humor in his songs. I was checking out some of his stuff on YT and found these-two great, funny stories from a very good songwriter and storyteller.





I have neglected to post some of this guy's clips. Lewis Black is funny as hell! I like his stuff! I sometimes don't like the angry, screaming comedians as much as I do as people like Jim Gaffigan, Mitch Hedberg, etc, but Black's thing is he's pissed! And he's fucking pissed! Pissed at all the BS we are going through. I can identify with him and his anger, so that's why I like him so much!

Lewis Black is really funny, but I found his new show on Comedy Central a little stale. I hope it picks up, because he's a really funny guy on his own.

Grant-I haven't seen it yet. sometimes "stand up guys'" comedy doesn't translate so well to a sitcom or "regular" tv show.
Thanks for dropping by
