Bill Burr: Live At Red Rocks

[MortSahlFan]

The first act = good
The second act = "The Trip" = one of his best
The third act = lesbians (very weak, it's going on too long)

Final 5 minutes is very "current" and good. This special is better than his last couple. I think his first specials were his best, getting better until the b&w one hitting his peak, and then not able to hit.

It helps if you also hear the podcast, because you'll recognize a real "true story"

I was at the taping for Paper Tiger so I have a bias towards that one, but this was definitely better than Walk Your Way Out. There were some bits that felt too recycled from previous specials, and a bit of the ol' cancel culture whining but I did enjoy the more personal moments. What an adorable ball of Boston rage he is.

That's so cool you were at the taping.

Always been fascinated by that clip and how his relationship with his father has evolved over the years. In Paper Tiger, he tells the Christmas story in a much more jovial way and laughs about it.

As American stand ups go he's okay. Prefer hearing him just talk absolute bollocks on his podcast for ages.

First five minutes of this and he's doing cancel culture and pandemic material. He better not let me down.

But then God knows where comedy is going now stand up wise, Stavros Halkias' act seems to just be crowd work in tik tok. So I dunno if I'll even be interested in comedy once the likes of Burr are shovelled into a grave.

Yes there's definitely going to be a shortage of middle aged white guys moaning about cancel culture.

Well not after they're dead and I'm still kicking. I think it'll be all algorithms and social media now.
