The line Up I would Pay to see
Would have to be (in no particular order)
Eddie Murphy ("RAW" is still funny to me)
Richard Pryor (I have "Live on Sunset strip" on DVD)
Bernie Mac (The hardest I ever laughed at a theater was his set in "Kings")
Chris Rock ("Bring the Pain" was my kind o Funny; smart and true)
With Chris Tucker coming in a close second behind Chris Rock. Chris Rock has more commentary in his comedy, which I like. Chris Tucker told stories and jokes, which is what Richard Pryor did to the hilt. The last time I saw Chris Tucker do stand up was on Def Comedy Jam. I don't think he does stand up anymore. I think he is trying to be more clean (going to the West Angeles Church in Los Angeles I think, same church as Tavis Smiley and many other black "Big Wigs"). Unfortunately, I think his career is not doing as well as it could because after "Rush Hour I" he decided to tone down his act. This in turn would require him to be a better actor (to get roles in good films), but he is a better comedian than actor. Is there a way you can be "saved" and "funny"?
Blackwatch!!!!!
