I was surprised at how funny Kevin James is - I was rolling during his whole act.
Love Lewis Black and Jon stewart - saw him at Coconut grove and he was funny all the way through as well.
Ron White - his whole story on being drunk..... and "I had the right to remain silent but not the ability"
I like Robin Williams but need to be on ritalin to get all his material!!!
And not to be too biased but my cousin Suzanne really is one of the funniest people i have seen live. Les even had tears running down his face .

If you ever get a chance to see her live - do it!

He is alive.. though he looks like he's in the Botox-of-the-Month club
His act still is hangin' on somewhere between Vegas and Reno and Tahoe

He is on Howard Stern once in a while, last time he was on he said he performs regularly at The Shimmer Club at the Hilton in Las Vegas .

I didn't see Larry Miller mentioned yet. His 5 stages of drinking routine is classic!

It's classic, but other than that routine, I just don't find him funny.

He did an HBO special many moons ago called "just words" or something like that. I thought that was good.

As much as shirtless women offend my strict christian values, I just might take one for the team and check it out anyway.
