Lesley >> Bill Hicks was this incredibly funny comedian from America who died in the early 9tees. Look for the 4-cd reissue series that came out on RykoDisc last year. He was a great social critic of the Reagan-era. He also has a routine that makes fun of Debbie Gibson and Tiffany in such a crude and cutting way I imagine it'd still bring tears to their eyes if they were ever to hear.

I've also seen him mentioned on sleeves from Super FUrry Animals and the Lo-Fi Allstars. The man was a comedy great, though. He dies, and Dennis Leary lives. Where's the justice? Rod.
