Seeing him a week from today, in Staten Island to boot! Was hoping to go with my girl, but she can't make it, so hopefully a romantic ferry ride and night of giggly hand-holding with my boy Chuck will suffice.
Yeah,if you had to chose one person today it would be him. Whenever he's on the Opie & Anthony show he's excellent as well.
I also think that one big factor that distinguishes him from many of his peers is that every year he throws out his old material & starts fresh which I love. I find there's nothing worse than comedians who keep on regurgitating the same material.
But there are different styles of stand up so I guess it depends on each person, you know. I really like Doug Stanhope but some people think he's too "hardcore".
I just 'discovered' Ted Alexandro last week & I gotta say he's excellent too, not as good as CK but very good.
but i don't think he's elite... he has his moments,but end to end, he's not on that level... louis ck is def beasting now... what's up w/ kat williams these days?
I saw Anthony Jeselnik last month and it was devastating. His shit was just menacing, and it was great to be there. The room was buzzing. I loved it.
Of all the standups regularly working, I go with Bill Burr right now. He's really hitting his stride in the last year or so, getting the attention he deserves. The way he's completely humble while ranting like an asshole is what does it for me. So good. His podcast just keeps getting better, too.
Louis CK is killing it with his output: awesome.
There are so many great standups again (and still)--it's great.

I too was at this. Great great show.
Recently I've heard/seen stuff from hanibal burres and he is hilarious.
Louis CK gets my vote.
