Bill Burr Crazy Funny Dave Attell Story

[@MrJayehawk]

"Kick the Sandman in his sack, stay up late Insomniac". Dave Attell is pure gold.

[@skateboston420]

A lot of us found out we were insomniacs because of Dave. Oh, that's why I'm up @ 330am. Golden Era of comedy central.

[@jessebrownell6084]

Loved insomniac...Dave attell is like the cool neighbor guy u love having him over for dinner and parties and he is always the life of the party

[@hobocat33]

I modelled my Insomnia on that show!!!!

[@Madkalibyr]

I loved that show! One of the first comedians I discovered as a kid

[@davidoconnor1773]

Dave Atell…. the life of the party…? Have you ever seen Dave Atell?? He’s super low energy, I saw him last year, he had Ian Fidance opening for him just to balance the act. Funniest comedian working tho, not close!

[@TheTwentySecondDegree]

Loooooved that show

[@darksaga80]

One of the best shows. His one liners were just epic and so whip fast and hilarious. The best was him just hazing drunk women and frat guys.

[@LuisMedina-ii4jm]

Dave attell is a fucking legend. Insomniac was a masterpiece.

[@thaxtonwaters8561]

I totally miss that show.

[@zstick]

Anyone who can have Bill Burr in awe like this is a definite superstar.

[@davidteovogel3482]

I like your face

[@nahfrfrfrfrfr]

dead end job no talent glazing

[@shanetaylor761]

I like how Bill is hard to please but when he's a fan, he's a real fan.

[@albertross2456]

Get bills d out yer mouf

[@zstick]

@@albertross2456 I ask this in all sincerity and with a real desire to help: What's wrong with you? And why do you choose to stay like that?

[@timeones]

So underrated. Attell is one of the greats.

[@IanTula]

Dave Atell gotta be one of the funniest underrated comics period! I don't understand how he didn't get bigger

[@mulletmann6558]

I do....fuck that! That's why. Kept telling him clean this or clean that...nah fuck that. He's a comedians comedian. He's that damned good lmao

[@ajallen178]

He didn’t sell out , that’s why. Ever bill burr sold out

[@dukstedi]

He’s the comedian your favorite comedian likes

[@IanTula]

@dukstedi Oh I agree with that... When I first saw him almost twenty years ago. I thought to myself this guy is gonna be as big as dave chappelle. Well I was wrong about that but he's still funny as hell!!!

[@CesoeFelony]

He writes...

[@LoDef647]

Saw Dave in Schaumburg IL a few months back. Not kidding it was the best live set I’ve ever seen. Had the whole crowd going insane. Dave is a comedy legend, no one is as fast as him

[@matthewgabbard6415]

Attell is my favorite. He just has that quick wit, stream of consciousness style that, in my opinion makes the perfect club comedian

[@timothyridgway5916]

Why do you keep saying stream of consciousness? - Norm McDonald

[@brandonsizemore3619]

Dave Attell got me into appreciating comedy. Used to wait on insomniac all week

[@kaisersozaay]

I've been a fan of stand up for decades. I've seen dozens of performances. But only this March (for the first time) will I see the king, Dave Attell

[@TheLandfillFire]

Ive seen them both and they are both fantastic however Dave Attell is criminally underrated ... he is one of the best comics I've ever seen

[@sm0k3gr33n]

Dave Attell is your favorite comedians favorite comedian. Dude is highly underrated.

[@DISEASEOFNORM]

Dave Attell is definitely not underrated lol

[@Dr.EDP445]

I don’t think you know what that word means. If he’s a famous persons idol, safe to say he is pretty well known…

[@thehongkongbong]

@@Dr.EDP445 I don't think *you* know what that word means. Being underrated or being famous are very different things

[@ForNoOne1]

​@@DISEASEOFNORMI'd say Dave Attell is underrated. I've been a fan of his since Insomniac. He never reached the level of fame and praise like some comics of his generation, even though he's better on a technical level than a lot of them.

[@DISEASEOFNORM]

@@ForNoOne1 you have a point. Just look a bert

[@johntalbott1553]

Love Dave and Bill. They can crack me up, all day long. 😎

[@brianmurphy250]

I say Dave in St Louis way back….he killed it! Underrated greatness

[@Afkmuds]

How loudly do you say it

[@Fnberg744]

Was it out at West Port maybe 1997 or so? I was there man!

[@Afkmuds]

@@Fnberg744 did you hear a gay yell it or was it not that loud

[@jswann3389]

Dave Attell is my favorite. 😂

[@joemamamatt]

Watching hit riff and bust balls was like a masterclass. Best show I’ve been too.

[@johnny5fingers0966]

Dave is absolutely one of the best.

[@chunkylover469]

Dave Attel w hair is hysterical

[@buddyboy6783]

i thought it was AI

[@Imapwnu1997]

I'll see Dave live every chance I get. He's on a whole other level.

[@donvee1419]

Insomniac! Was an amazing show. Dave was always great on the show. Wish he would make more like those.

[@cthulhuhoops7538]

Love Dave Attell definitely underrated.

[@dlove118]

I've been a fan of this guy for years. One of my favorite bits is the piece about a guy with one tooth offering directions. 'I'd rather get them from a guy with one leg, am I right'

[@Justin-od8se]

to me, the greatest thing i ever heard him say was "I hate to travel...probably because my dad used to beat me with a globe"

[@charleyelefante]

Can I help you start that apple?

[@dlf6124]

“He had one tooth, and he wasn’t taking very good care of it”. Classic

[@rustyking8783]

The beer can popper.

[@cosmokramer9378]

​@@dlf6124 "You would think if you were down to one tooth you would baby it a little; not this f*cker."

[@Boygonebad]

Attell is one of the GOATS in stand up

[@jasonweninger]

Dave Attell is hilarious, this sounds like a fantastic story I would've loved to hear live.

[@coinslotsandjoysticks2572]

Dave was awesome, i miss him every day

[@TheTylerRobison]

Dave Atell was amazing! Insomniac was such a great show very underrated because he hosted an awesome show about getting drunk that came on late af... That shit got me through my actual insomnia, thanks so much, Legend!!!

[@joemc7614]

I saw dave at the improv in tampa like 20 years ago and he kiĺled it. I bought him a shot of jeager and couldn't believe it when he sent one back my way. What a class act. Attell is the best!

[@aaronflowers8626]

A little girl is sitting on a swing, not swinging. A little tear runs down her cheek. Where's Daddy?...JAEGER

[@simplenough]

He’ll never come back to Florida smh

[@RedDevilDog1207]

Bill is spot on. Saw Dave in WI and to this day he's the greatest stand up at slapping back at hecklers. Watched him break down a group of women for 30 min and it was incredible.

[@anthonygreen6219]

Dave Attel is on another level. That guy owns!

[@Elijah-fc3ex]

Dave Attell is one of the greatest. Skanks for the memories is legit a top 5 special of all time in my eyes

[@stevebello8728]

Dave has been awesome for over 30 hrs ❤❤❤

[@trublgrl]

Man I'm so glad you showed Bill Burr talking about the bit with the jokes in it, than actually showing the bit with the jokes in it. I almost had the pleasure of laughing.

[@KMc-cw3qt]

I knew Dave back in the 80s before he broke out. Absolute savage. He would come up with that kind of shit without even thinking about it. Drinking in a bar with him was a show, every time. Great guy.

[@andrewsavage7488]

Such an underatted comic.

[@shanehill2288]

Dave is a legend....

[@DOC6.7]

Dave was the best stand up I’ve ever seen.

[@davidhayes972]

How you handle a heckler is the true test of a comedian! Well played

[@anthonyfoutch3152]

Dave is great BRINK BACK INSOMNIAC !!!

[@TheG21145]

Dave Attell is a total Legend

[@sharonbullard3452]

This is great I just love this I didn’t even know this actor was around. I just love it just go with it.

[@AnimeNPC.]

Dave is a great story teller. Loved his show Insomniac. Seemed like a weird but cool guy.

[@dirty56ace]

I fvcking love Dave Attell. His show on late night Comedy Central was hilarious.

[@user-rd1sz4kk9f]

Got to see Attell recently and was thinking how grateful I am he still is a road comic and doesn't skip shows in lieu of exclusively podcasting.

[@bobbygetsbanned6049]

Only Dave Attell could come up with something like that, dude's hilarious.

[@andyandy2498]

Dave Attell the only person to tell weed smokers to try tobacco. The man is fuckin hilarious

[@skinny4070]

I got to see Dave. Freaken awesome

[@1trushadowclw642]

Dave is one of my comedic heros😊 Bring back insomniac!

[@dakotagrown8619]

My favorite comic of all time

[@JohnCloffr]

Dave is a great comic

[@courtneyacoleman]

Attell is a legend.

[@gadgettv2023]

Dave Attell was pure madness.

[@funnyshortsXL]

Dave Attel is fucking awesome

[@Chesterton7]

Attell is gold.

[@bi1ly3d]

I would love another Attell album

[@janew3260]

Love attell ! Got to see him in Wichita. He’s hilarious.

[@rexhargrove5172]

I know this comment is a tad bit off topic, but Insomniac is and will always be the best unscripted comedy on television

[@youfritter]

loved that show...pre internet

[@Eggy79]

Lol "unscripted" Like reality shows

[@jakelancey4769]

Insomniac is one of the best skits ever

[@kevinflynn4519]

I was on the New Orleans Insomniac.. Dave is awesome.

[@alfraelich]

two of my favorite moments on insomniacs were 1) at the fetish bar when asked the two that had just met at the bar what was, next, were they going to take turns pushing each other into traffic 2) No idea where, but he was at some place eating that had picnic tables around it and one of the groups of people had a dog, collie or whatever, and the guy working the sound lowered the boom to the dog and Dave lifted it back up saying he 'stopped listening to dogs talk when they started telling him to kill hookers'.. Lol That show was insane

[@ee-mon-ee1653]

" You ever got drunk and blacked out or as I call it TIME TRAVELED ". Definitely one of my top fave comics.

[@sloppypapi8886]

Insomniac was my SHIT when I was 10 😂 so many sleepless nights grappling with my anxiety and depression. Thanks Dave 🫡

[@rickmurphy7165]

Dave Attell is the best standup period

[@harisdiz.5817]

Attell is an absolute champion.

[@kedt4mb]

I seen dave attell 2 times amazing

[@SnowManly]

Attell reels we want more!

[@monica93304]

Dave Attell is a bad ass comic. I love his show " Insomniac"

[@AninoffsMagister]

Dave Attell is one of the funniest stand ups of all time. I used to love Late Night with Dave Attell!! I was gonna bring my kids to his show in Sand Diego later this month but it’s 21+ only.

[@joeydurant6267]

His closer about the man running down the street naked.... Pure friggin gold

[@toml-oq1vw]

Worked at Tampa improv like 18 years ago and had pleasure to have drinks with Dave Attell.. he's doesnt have a characters like most comics, its just him. Remember a non thinking heckler try his hand ...security moved to take him out and Dave put up his hand and said nope, leave him there...Im gonna heal this man 😂. He did to our great enjoyment. Then threw him out. Was awesome

[@straitsatan]

Attell and Mooney are the best

[@DylanP-hp6yn]

I miss Dave

[@NeBe1984]

Saw Dave live. Great show😎

[@BlueCollar1212]

He’s my all time favorite comic. And I feel like he doesn’t get talked about enough

[@kevinnelson198]

Same! “Skanks for the memories” is my all time favorite comedy album! Dudes the greatest. Seen him in Grand Rapids like 10 years ago. Dude was great!!

[@matthewgabbard6415]

Me too man

[@DanLoFat]

I love comedians that handle Hector's like that when they bring them into a world and really help them enjoy the show and not be such a curmudgeon and and they don't interrupt anymore it's great. Bob odenkirk did that, too.

[@christopherporter2459]

Lmao Hector's

[@justsayin._.]

Can spell curmudgeon, but not heckler. What a world

[@joypalos474]

Dave Attell can NOT be caught off guard. Every word he says is always on point. His dark humor side has been sharpened since birth. No heckler stands a chance.

[@kweenzwalters3916]

One of the greats man. Not much new comedians are as funny now except for shane gillis

[@HazelwithaZ]

The legend.

[@ThisHorrorFilmDoesNotExist]

Well, that just makes me want to heckle Dave. That sounds like an amazing end result.

[@BlaikeMcG]

My god, even a second hand rendition of Dave attell’s comedy made me laugh to the point I cry…

[@rithvikestudio1]

Attell is simply the person in everyone's head that is constantly silenced by stupidity and lack of genuine thoughts he is allowed to speak when stupidity needs to be silenced... He's no good more like a fart that deserves recognition. Love ya Dave 🎉😂😮😊

[@burlowsurviorhills4584]

Bill take care of Business 😂

[@zrayburton]

Amazing hahaha. 2 of the best

[@defectiveparts8604]

This is how to comedy, just pure flow state.

[@Javifrom303]

I used to love his show insomnia with Dave Attell

[@Backyardmech1]

😂 Dave Attell had a SHOW about being heckled.

[@Frank7489]

I like how Attell didn’t feel the need to engage in like taking turns putting each other down. He’s not petty, has nothing to prove so he just gets weird with it 😂 I’ve always loved Dave. He’s funny on stage, he’s funny in interviews, he’s funny just hanging out. He doesn’t have a big ego or anything. On insomniac he’d chop it up with any random person and make it funny

[@darkswim8686]

I use to love "Up all night with Dave Atel".

[@JUNGLEGYMWARRIOR]

Dave Attell is a savage 😂

[@jimkammerer5240]

DAVE IS A GOAT.VERY GOOD

[@GrateWight]

Dave is kind of a legend at this point.

[@Lost_n_Found_1]

Dave Attell is one of the funniest comedians of all time. Prove me wrong.

[@BugMateo]

Atell is a legend

[@tennis4517]

I like how Dave chose not to meet aggression with aggression but got weird with it instead. Like he didn’t play their game and stoop to their level but took control of the room on his own terms. It’s shows how secure in himself he is as a stand up

[@brianrad68]

Bill is so modest. We all saw the infamous Philly show where he decimated the crowd of hecklers.

[@ModernDayRenaissanceMan]

Hearing Dave Atells name brings me right back to that grungy era of the late 1990s and the early 2000s when he was the antithesis of sex in the City

[@user-fc7tm8zt3t]

Attell is for sure on my Mount Rushmore

[@batmanjones655]

Dave Attell is a true comedians' comedian. One of the most underrated comics of all time. And probably influenced more comedians than any, second to Carlin

[@erikshankles6482]

I totally forgot about that guy. Man Dave Attel was a common part of my youth and I'd totally forgot he existed. Wow.

[@vikinglife6316]

Best narrator for Outlaw Golf 2

[@luciusvorenus9445]

Dave Attell is a great stand up. He deserves to be more well known than he is.

[@jayess9933]

I got to work with Dave once back in the 90’s, and he wasn’t good during that performance. I feel like he rushed every joke, and the audience wasn’t with him. I am glad to see how far he came in such a short time since then. I’ve seen him perform a few times since and he’s killed it every time. To this day I cannot have someone around me talk about Jager without playing his, “Jäegermeister commercials” clip for them.

[@Sheisthedevilyouknowwho-ft9we]

Jager. Yes. Captain Miserable was great, and his set of the Insomniac tour. This has reminded me to look for his specials. I haven't thought about this in years....when they went to see troops, and "no one has sex, but they all smell like they just did". The the part about the camel followed by....D.C. pregnant crack whore, do the same, ride her around. Put a cigarette in her mouth, take a picture and laugh at her😂😂😂

[@headless0ptomist198]

Dave is one of the funniest comedians that never really popped for some reason, he had a TV show for a while but his standup is head and shoulders above most of the "top" comics that are doing stadiums these days.

[@jremington123]

Saw him in Raleigh last week. Great show. Completely different set from last year.

[@Sidious6460]

I got to see Dave in the Cellar. It was an odd show, but completely hilarious.
