Comment on Hope his set doesn't bomb
nixon@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks agoAgreed on the Bill Burr part.
He is the only one who I was surprised and disappointed to see attending. All those others are people who’d I expect to chase money or morals and I didn’t respect as individuals already.
I wonder how he is going to spin this.

90s stand up chappelle was incredibly important for the time and place at the time

Bill Burr will literally just say the money was good so he went, I’m pretty sure. He’s never seemed like the kinda guy to invent some spin

You’re right, I guess spin is the wrong word here since it is a PR term and Bill Burr isn’t a PR type of guy. I meant what he will have to say about it.
He will be blunt and honest with answers ranging from, “it’s none of your damn business” to “I needed a new helicopter that has more than 2 seats so I can evacuate my family from LA safely once shit hits the fan and I don’t want to put myself in a Sofie’s Choice kinda situation” or “Sorry, I wasn’t thinking when I accepted the job but donated the paycheck to the 9/11 families fund.”

Agreed about 90s Chappelle… I think he would have had more empathy and understanding in selecting gigs than current Chappelle.
