Bill Burr's Official Website
If you don't know anything about Bill Burr, you might at least recognize him from the Chapelle's Show skits "Racial Draft" (the blacks win the lottery, ha, they'll probably still complain) and "Guy's Night Out" (a mouth is a mouth, bro). Burr has been a comedian for over a decade, making his way out of the New England comedy circuits and moving to the road, steadily becoming one of the most hardened comics you'd ever think about heckling. You want poetry? Look up his legendary encounter in Philadelphia that lasted over the entire alotted set time he was given. Opie and Anthony's Travelling Pants Tour. It's beautiful. Some of the biggest dickheads to walk the streets of America face off against one of the coolest Assholes to ever pick up a mic in a yelling match that in the end, Burr wins decisivley.
Right now, Burr can be seen on the road touring, as always. On top of that, he has an impressive amount of podcasts and radio appearances that keep him exposed to the public. For example, anyone that listens to Opie and Anthony will know him well. Last year for OzFest, the crew sent him out to interview bands. He then proceeded to ask them to do PSA spots, on the spot, about completley fictional events. "Don't you be fuckin hittin no special needs kids, you fuckin retards". A quote from the guitarist from In Flames.
He has two podcasts you can subscribe to on ITunes, The Bill Burr Monday Morning podcast, which is basically Burr ranting about grievances and annoyances. Then there's the stand up podcast he has. Gives you a feel for his stuff. Check out his two albums currently in circulation, "Emotionally Unavailable" and "Why Do I Do This?" which has a DVD of the CD material. This week I have videos of him on my video bar, check them out, buy his stuff. At least check him on YouTube.
