Bill Hicks was a brilliant comedian.  He was also a brilliant thinker, and this work is equally about his thoughts and philosphies as it is about his humor.  Having said that, this isn't for everyone.  Quite frankly I was expecting it to be a bit lighter when I first played it.  The title says it all, this is a RANT.  Much of the rant makes perfect sense and you will laugh along the way.  This is heavy stuff, Hicks is very angry almost the whole time but he will get you thinking.  How many comedians can truly say that?
