Standup

Part 1: http://videosift.com/video/The-Comedians-Comedian-HBO-One-Night-Stand

This is a candidate for the best xmas-present for me this this year, I just found this online again after it disappeared about 3-4 yrs ago. His best preformance ever......

In his opinion Richard Pryor and George Carlin were nr. 1 & 2 best ever, Patrice is no doubt strong candidate for for nr.3.................. R.I.P

From Wikipedia:

"Always known as a comedian's comedian, O'Neal was one of the best loved acts by his peers. Many comics reacted via Twitter.[22] "The best comedian in the world has died," proclaimed Norm MacDonald. Dave Attell tweeted "Patrice O. was and is one of the best comics I have ever had the pleasure to watch perform." Ricky Gervais, a long time vocal fan of O'Neal's, said "One of my favourite stand up comedians. So sad. RIP." Denis Leary called him "one of the funniest men who ever walked this earth" and Bill Burr concurred, saying he was "the most purely funny human being I’ve ever met." Doug Stanhope remembered O'Neal as "one of the best ever. Inspiring every time I heard him on anything." Dane Cook, a fellow Boston native echoed "He was 1 of the best ever." Dozens of other comedians echoed similar sentiments on Twitter.[23][24] Comedian Jon Stewart paid his respects through his "Moment of Zen" bit, in his show The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, stating: "Sad News. Once again in comedy we lose somebody, who's too funny, too soon." This statement was followed by a clip of O'Neal's stand up special Elephant in the Room."
