Let’s try something different in the New year, shall we? Instead of weekend concerts, we’ll do weekend comedians and see how that goes. Everyone needs a laugh, right? Plus, there are many, many funny people out there.
To kick things off, we’ll attend a show in NYC featuring George Carlin. This one has Italian subtitles, adding to the already-ample humor.
Carlin, to me, is best known for his love of language and observation of details. Some of his funniest pieces are about the way we use words, and things we do out of habit.
WARNING! for all forthcoming weekend comedy series shows – comedians swear and can be offensive to sensitive audiences. Watch in a suervised setting. Do not watch if you would prefer to avoid adult language and themes. Not for children. Not for Puritans. Do not attempt at home. May cause rash.
I hope to book Chris Rock, Sarah Silverman, Louis C.K., Seinfeld, Louis Black, Richard Pryor, Roseanne, Rodney Dangerfield, and others. Feel free to nominate other comedy legends in the comments and I’ll call their YouTube agents.

Great!
Yes, do I ever need a quality laugh. I’ve found there to be
a lot of really bad comedians out there. A good one is rare to find.
