Bill Burr has been playing the intellectual anti Rogan Card for aboit a decadeBill Burr is taking some kicking over on his own YouTube channel after playing the Riyadh comedy festival.
Ol' Billy Blood Money. Ol' Billy Bonesaw. Ol' Billy Bahrain...
To quote Marc Maron; "The Riyadh comedy festival - from the same people who brought you 9/11! I mean, the guy that's gonna pay them is the same guy that paid that someone to bone-saw Jamal Khashoggi and put him in a fucking suitcase."

I reckon this is career suicide. We'll see him in City limits in a few years

Fuckit, I was mad to go to that but we couldn't sort a babysitterWent to Dylan Moran at the weekend.
Christ, it was poor - I mean, OK, he's a pro and he had a couple of great moments but not enough to say it was good value for the €100 I dropped on two tickets (plus drinks/dinner beforehand and parking).
But... they were few and far between - he was fucking langersed. I don't think he even managed 45 minutes (for reference - the warm up act did 25 minutes), a lot of which was taken up with him noodling at a keyboard and then he just fucked off - quick wave and out the gap!
He shouldn't be on tour in his condition, he needs a break and some help. He's away from the wife and all that, I understand, but putting him onstage in that shape is akin to an atrocity exhibition.

I went to see him in the city limits last summer when he was getting this show ready and he was great. it was rough around the edges then but he was fairly langered then too.
A good chunk of it was crowd work though which is never a good sign I think. The jokes should stand by themselves like.
I presumed the whole thing would polish up lovely the main tour
