The guvnor's been gone a decade, and his material is more relevant today than ever. Depressingly.
RIP Bill

Sad loss. Still can't quite believe he's dead.

There's a good article about him in the March edition of 'Jack' for those interested.

WM Go here mate. if it whets your appetite, check out some of his videos/CDs I was priveleged to see him a couple of times and it wasn't anything you could forget in a hurry! www.billhicks.com/"That this house notes with sadness the 10th anniversary of the death of Bill Hicks, on February 26th 1994, at the age of 33; recalls his assertion that his words would be a bullet in the heart of consumerism, capitalism and the American Dream; and mourns the passing of one of the few people who may be mentioned as being worthy of inclusion with Lenny Bruce in any list of unflinching and painfully honest political philosophers." - Stephen Pound MP; Parliamentary House of Commons
