Mitchless


This is very belated, but in a way that's good, because it still matters to me. Wookiee and I drove down to Seattle see comedic genius Mitch Hedberg a few months before he died on March 30, 2005. He was co-headlining with Stephen Lynch, and Al Madrigal filled out the show. Mitch was an amazingly hilarious comedian who I quote with great frequency and he has been and will be greatly missed. I found this picture in my database of all three of them so I thought I'd post it up. Incidentally, Al is also brilliantly funny and I love his delivery. I'm not sure what else to say here, so I'll go with the standard because it's true; thanks for the laughs Mitch, you're certainly not forgotten.

"Last week I helped my friend stay put. It's a lot easier than helping someone move. I just went over to his house and made sure that he did not start to load shit into a truck." ~Mitch Hedberg~
