The best underground comedian ever ever ever... is a guy named Rick Shapiro. He's a real New York comedian and is fucking out of his mind. He's been doing it for years and is only now getting a little bit of success. He's now involved with some kind HBO comedy series so he's in LA a lot too... but for the longest time he was the starving artist type and a couple years ago I used to see him play every week at the Sidewalk Cafe on 7th and Ave. C. He's back in New York for a while (saw him play Sidewalk last Friday for the first time in a year) and is completely outrageous. If you want "offensive," "outrageous," "stream-of-conscious," "subversive" and other bullshit praise adjectives that don't hold a candle to what this man actually does, check him out.
