      I still haven't watched all of Paths..the Killing or Killer's Kiss. I'm afraid to end the Kubrick journey. Thank God Bill Hicks' brother keeps uploading old never before seen gigs of Bill. When I discovered Bill in 2007 on RUclips I never felt so betrayed by my country for keeping him off the big American Stages. Then again it was like discovering my own private buried treasure

      I was there. It was at the queen's Hall in 94. The best bit was at the end when he sat back for an hour and took questions from the audience.
      Can you remember him coming on and flicking the cigarette into his mouth?
      A great night and a privilege to have seen him.
      Was also lucky enough to have seen Jerry Sadowitz there in 89.

    Bill confuses me on a religious level.
    On one hand, I feel like the fact that he died at only 32 years old says that there’s no way there’s a God. On the other hand, the fact he existed at all says there is one.
