Overview

Barry Crimmins Live at Jimmy Tingle's Off Broadway Theater in Davis Square, Somerville on Saturday Night, May 6, 2006.



Barry Crimmins gives another hilarious and brilliant performance, lambasting the Bush administration.



"I haven't laughed so hard at a comedy recording since Richard Pryor's first album. Seriously, Crimmins is a classic and we all know him but he still has the fast ball and then some. I was startled by how funny this is. This is a beautiful record. His ideas are original and meaningful, his jokes are deadly funny and his point of view is compelling. But more than that, he performs the hell out of the material. I listened to this in my car and I pounded the dashboard as I laughed. It's the kind of thing where you don't just laugh, you laugh as you say "Oh, man. Jesus that is good" as you laugh. If he was a pitcher he'd be El Duque. More arm angles than you could dream of. I had NO idea where any joke was coming from. The whole thing just knocked me right on my ass. And I HATE comedy.


The worst president in the history of our country plus Barry's well honed passion and comedy equals something that EVERYONE has to hear. When it comes to political comedy nobody touches Barry."


Louis C.K.

star of HBO's upcoming "Lucky Louie"




"I always have the same thought while I'm laughing my ass off at
Crimmins -- 'I need to write more'"


Patton Oswalt -- star of The Comedians and Comedy and CBS's The King Of Queens
