CD Reviews

Michael Ian Black is truly a wonderful man.
Sledgehammer | New York, NY | 09/26/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"If you listen to this cd backwards there's a satanic message AND if you open up the case, there's a nudie picture of MIB himself! But seriously folks, there is a nudie pic of MIB and I really enjoyed this album. I've been a fan of his since the State and then Stella - it's so cool that he's going the solo stand-up route. He does it well! All the bizarro you'd expect now with just a little more "take my wife please". Thumbs up!"
"That's why it's so great to be white!"

"Hardy har har! No, I mean it. I was at one of the two shows this material was culled from. Michael Black was dead brilliant that night and I memorized some of the jokes. But, I noticed a few changes here and there on the CD, although most of it was clearly from the show I saw. In fact, my wife said after the show that when the CD comes out, we'll be able to hear my raucous laughter on it. She was right. So was I ever surprised upon listening to the CD to hear some jokes told slightly differently. Must be the producers carefully edited the recordings from the two shows here in Chicago, creating a seamless blend.

On a side note, I prefer the other version of "Bumper Stickers" in which the preferable alternatives to "eat s***!" are "kiss my a**!" (oh, O.K., that's not so bad) or "s**k my d***!" (eh, whatever...).

Nit-picking aside, this CD is perfectly wonderful, man. I had such a good time at the show I was quoting MIB for weeks afterward. My highest recommendation for fans of no-holds-barred, crude yet still charming (somehow) and intelligent/dumb comedy. Oh, and Black's comrade Michael Showalter opened. He's another funnyman to seek out. Buy the "Stella" DVD, which includes the entire first and only season of Comedy Central's sorely-missed series (2005)."

"I got into Michael Ian Black after seeing him on "I Love the 80s" and in Wet Hot American Summer. This is the first time I've heard him do stand-up though, and he's unstoppable. He tells a story about a benefit show in New Orleans where the crowd really sucks and a girl apologizes to him after the show. She says she hopes he doesn't hate New Orleans because of how bad the crowd was. He tells her "No, of course not. Nobody could hate New Orleans. ...Except god." As always, he's fearless, shameless and hilarious. A must have for Michael Ian Black fans.
