New Bill Hicks recording surfaces!

[Monkey see Monkey Do]

It's an audience recording from October 10th, 1993 in New York. The gig is right after he was dropped from Letterman(*) and Hicks lets his feelings about him and the whole incident known (well that's what I'm told, I haven't finished downloading it yet!).

(*)See this article by John Lahr for more info & a transcript of the Letterman performance. (The complete letter Hicks wrote to Lahr is in the book Love All The People.):

5. It's weird - it works fine on my download manager, but I've just tried

"right click save as ..." and it won't work.

6. Weird...

It just redirects me to the frequency23 main page. :(

7. I'd offer to upload it to a file-sharing site, but I'm only on dial-up :(

I'll keep my eyes peeled for an alternate host.

(OT, but when you're looking for new films to download look out for "Innocence" - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0375233/ . Hadzihalilovic is Gaspar Noe's partner & she edited "I Stand Alone" (& the cinematographer did Irreversible.))

8. Oh, thanks for the recommendation.

3. Just an aside: Love All The People is a great book if anyone needs

something new to read. It does get a little repetitive since the material overlaps a bit, but at the same time you can see it evolve so it doesn't really take away from the book either.

Thanks for the link to the recording.

"you're Christians, right?"

"yeah"

"well...forgive me." :)
