Just for the fun of it.

As anyone who has seen my sig knows I run a comedy website (one of about 14 sites I manage) and this is kind of crunch week for me because the biggest and best comedy festival is going full bore in Montreal right now the Festival Just For Laughs. I saw Tommy Tiernan last night and his one man show was awesome - just relentless laughter. Tonight I saw Three Blonde Moms which was a hoot but needs some polish. The one man show Bigger Than Jesus was mind boggling but destined to probably stay north of the mason dixon.

Anyway I just thought I would throw out there the names of some of my favourite comedy choices for those of you who enjoy comedy. These aren't necessarily my all time favourites just stuff I think deserves a listen.

10 - Nothing Sacred the new book by Lewis Black is well worth the read
9 - Made You Laugh - A great history of comedy for those who like histories and comedy fans.
8 - A Big Steaming Pile Of Me - Richard Jeni DVD - one of the most reliable funny men working
7 - Inside The Male Intellect - Richard Dubac
6 - Bootleg I & Bootleg II - Ron Shock next to Cosby the best story teller working in comedy.
5 - Lock The Door - Jeff Allen - Born again christian and a rock solid clean stand-up
4 - Dignity Under Duress - Maryellen Hooper, one of the funniest women working the stan-up circuit.
3 - Just Running My Mouth - Caroline Picard - She works very blue with language that could make a sailor blush.
2 - Bill Cosby is a very funny fellow. Right? - Bill Cosby - the Noah track alone justifies this CD.
1 - To Russell, My Brother, Whom I Slept With - This is the definitive Cosby CD. If you own no other comedy CDs number 1 & 2 should be on your list.

Always interested in hearing what other people are listening to comedy wise.
