This is a nice slice of Daniel Tosh early on in his career.
Twenty years ago he performed at the Montreal Comedy
Festival as a relative newcomer, I was there that year but
did not see this performance, this was at a Gala and I was
doing the Bubbling With Laughter series at the smaller clubs.
He was pretty good back then, he has since become one of the
best stand-up comedians on the circuit.
He’s as funny as they come, great timing, superb material, and
his stage presence is second to none, one of the best ever.
Also one of the most irreverent.
And that is the key to his success.
But he does parody so flawlessly that it is mistaken for all sorts
of negative things and it’s created a lot of bad press for him.
The folks who “get it” understand what he’s really about and
embrace his approach to comedy wholeheartedly.
Later in the week I’ll post some of his newer material, a bit more
profane and a lot more irreverent, to show you how far he’s come.
Until then, it’s Cargo Pants time…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
