William Melvin Hicks aka Bill Hicks was a fantastic comedy even though many didn't find him funny. In fact, many found him to be offensive, but he never wanted to offend his audience. He wanted them to think, to question, and to challenge what we'd been told. He was a free spirit who wanted us to love each other and stop being afraid, a message that still isn't getting through to people today. I miss the man, and he died when I was 9. We miss you, Bill.
Here is an article with links to Bill's full stand up sets. Enjoy!
