Looking to pass some time on a road trip and have exhausted all my current standup's. I am looking for something that is good that I have not already heard. I have listened to and loved
Mitch Hedberg
Dane Cook
Richard Pryor
Dave Chappelle
Chris Rock
Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy
Lewis Black


Anyone have any recommendations?

haha..i ALWAYS listen to stand-up when i'm the road.

Ok, here's what i would suggest.

Jim Gaffigan - Beyond the Pale

Jerry Seinfeld - I'm Telling You for the Last Time

Then, assuming you don't have "young listeners" in the car, try Mitch Fatel's "Super Retardo" cd. His first cd wasn't as great, but this one is pretty funny.

Umm, you already have Dane Cook and Mitch Hedberg...so those are good choices as well. Also, steve martin did some stuff a while back that I still really like. Just depends if you like his comedy or not D

Damn, beat me to it! His Beyond the Pale special is hilarious! I was honestly in tears and on the floor the first time I watched it.

Beyond and Pale and Just Doin' My Time, both Jim Gaffigan.

Stephen Lynch-Superhero, The Craig Machine

Billy Connolly.

Ditto on Connolly.

I'm also surprised Jim Norton wasn't in your list. He's had two albums out

I'd also give Brian Regan and Robert Kelly a shot too.

If you like voices/impressions, Frank Calliendo (from MAD TV) is hilarious. I've got a couple of his CD's. Besides his signature John Madden, he can do damn near anybody. His Bush Jr. and Kasey Kasem, among others, are very funny. His routines aren't really that funny though, I just get a kick out of his voices. The man is amazing.

He's very edgy. Going by what else you listed, I think you'll like him.

Not sure which Chappele you've listened to but Killin 'em Softly is probably one of the greatest stand ups in the last 20 years.

Last I heard, Louie's trying to take it to another network.

Louie's great, but just like any sitcom, one person steals the show, and that was Jimmy. If they show sticks around, it would propel both guys careers. I just hope he can pull it off.

Sorry I missed your post earlier, but hell yeah. He's one of the best impersonators out there. He almost made MadTV watchable. )

I know I may come off as a dyed in the wool "drink the kool-aid" O&A fan, but if you like most of the comics mentioned in this thread, you ought to listen to them. Not to threadjack to push them, but most of these comics are on the show quite often. You might want to listen for that reason alone.
