Stewart Lee Page 2

Yeah check out the Go Faster Stripe site for Stewart Lee's 90's Comedian show. Also a couple of Richard Herring's live shows as well as a Simon Munnery one that should be out soon.

Ooh, Munnery?
I've got the first Herring one, I keep forgetting yoghurt is out too.

Woah -- flashback. Remember somebody asking about Fist of Fun DVDs (think it was chipolata). Well, if you take a look at Stew's website: http://www.stewartlee.co.uk/oldshows.htm

You will notice he has links to FoF series 2 (with 1 to follow imminently apparently) and all the eps of TMWRNJ.

Stewart Lee scares the bejasus out of me. He has this really intimidating, almost aggressive intelligence coupled with devastating wit that makes all around him look like gibbering neanderthal f**kwits.

Surely, simply remembering him in the 90s with his silly hair negates all that?

Stuart Lee is one of those brilliant once in a generation comedians who, like George Carlin, thankfully hasn't died young. Not saying hes old or anything, why do I always end up insulting the people I like? Laughing out loud

His Ang Lee joke is probably me favorite ever joke.

Even more favourite than:

How do you shock a vicar?

Hit him in the balls with a cattle prod.

Don't make me Ang Lee Aaron. You wouldn't like me when i'm Ang Lee

"Are you taking the mickey out of my accent?"

I'd better post the clip so people know what we're talking about. The second clip is the Lee and Herring reunion at TedStock. Better mention Herring as we're hosting his podcast :) Brilliant stuff.

I think something about Stewart Lee would hate you posting the link and making him more populist.

Though he would like the exposure and people to be more familiar about his work so they buy his stuff and make him more money.

But he'd still hate it.

Probably.

EDIT: Has anyone got a copy of him (mid-late 90s) doing the 'All Things Bright and Beautiful' deconstrution on the Comedy Store off Channel Five? Best bit of stand-up ever!

Thats why he's brought out DVDs and is working on a TV show? I saw him last year, at the end he ran to a table by the door and started selling his DVDs. Top comedian, agree with the Ang Lee joke being top, so is the Joe Pasquale one too.

Sorry 'Nuts, I thought the irony was implicit... ;)

He forgot the DVDs last time I saw him. He was well pissed off.

I think he genuinely hates himself for it. :)
