So a posthumous Mitch Hedberg CD is out now. I grabbed it on itunes yesterday and it's fucking hilarious. This is easily on par with All Together and in many cases far exceeds. The show itself was a few months before he died and you can really hear how his act progressed. He pwnz the shit out of a heckler in the middle, and even the bad jokes are hilarious. The infamous Mitch Hedberg rhythm is in full force here.
If you don't know who Mitch Hedberg is, march your ill-informed ass over to Youtube and be enlightened. For those of you in the know, you pretty much know the vibe. Procure this immediately.

I saw this was out. I figured it was a really old act of his or something before he honed his skills, but I guess it's not. I'll be getting this pronto. He's one of the best ever!

I lost count the number of times I've listened to All Together somewhere in the low 100's seriously. I love Strategic Grill Locations too. lots of the same jokes in there but it doesn't get old. ever. I'm on my way to iTunes as we speak... er, type.

I wasn't a huge fan of Strategic Grill Locations. He was basically too fucked up to form coherent sentences for the most part. It most definitely had its moments, but All Together is really where he got it together. I'll say this one takes the maturity of All Together (if such a thing can be said about anything Hedberg related) to a new level. You won't be disappointed is basically what I'm trying to say.

yep, this one is defintely good. albeit a tad short, but still worth the $9.99 on iTunes for sure.

Are you entering your name everytime? I wouldn't trust that "remember personal info" shit. Especially if you're using Firefox or some non-MSIE baked thing (Google Chrome over here!)
