Music reviews of Skanks for the Memories
Music Review: Yea, it really is that good...
Rating: 5 Stars
Dave Attel is a breath of fresh air in the world of modern comedy. 'Cause lets face it folks, comedy in the 90s, for the most part, [was just bad]. The few good comedians like Dennis Leary or Stephen Wright, are seldom heard of lately it seems. Are they getting old, or is there act getting old? We may never know. True, there are probably dozens of great comedians that came out in the 90s that I can't think of right now, but for the most part, comedy seemed next to dead for the better part of a decade. To most comedians, they thought if they made a funny face or did some weird voice or sound thing with their mouth they'd get a laugh. Unfortunately, they were right. So, I can't tell whose fault it was; the dumb comedians, or the dumb audiences. And for those of us who refused to settle for the run of the mill yuppies who decided to grab a mike and tell a boring story with a few far noises thrown in, we could always turn to Black comics, as long as we didn't mind being insulted and treated like we were somehow either wealthy golf course patrons or crazy gun totin' high school kids (in wake of Colombine of course). So, when I hear someone like Dave Attel, who is so off the wall and often times obscure, and EXTREMELY unpredictable, I feel like I can laugh guilt free. Unlike so many other comedians, he knows when to move on to a new joke. He doesn't wear them so thin that he eventaully has to make fun of himself for not being able to hold the audiences attention. When he's made us laugh at one thing, he changes the subject, often times very abruptly, and moves on. His observations, which all comics use in their acts, are not only more creative in their simplicity, but his delivery and tone of voice will often make a joke 10 times funnier than if some other "funny" man had said it. He's not politically correct, in the least. His whole speal on Midgets was classic, and unapologetic. He even talks about sexual molestation, by turning it against the kids, rather than those who are doing the molesting. Not to mention his noticing that "this went from comedy show to Klan meeting" remark, which probably left a few people speechless. Its not so much the thigns being said, 'cause lets face it, its all been said before, hell we've all probably said worse. Its the fact that he's saying on stage, and doesn't seem to care that no one else is daring to go there. Thank God, or Satan, or whoever, for Dave Attel. Its about time we had a comedian who isn't afraid to make us laugh, even if it makes him look bad.I also liked how this was recorded right here in Denver, CO. For some reason that makes me feel good.
