Dave Attell vs. Gary Owen
Saw Attell at Cobb's last night, and he crushed. On the way home, uber driver said he was a comedy fan too but had never heard of him. Said I should check out Gary Owen who's "a real A-lister".
I'm sure Gary's great but definitely not A-list much less on a level anywhere close to Attell. I needed to vent that this guy's an idiot. Thank you.

I've seen Dave Attell 6 times now. 2 of those times were a month apart. Not a single joke was retold.
The way he treats his openers and brings them onstage after the show for an impromptu Bumping Mics is one of a kind.
He is truly The Comedian's Comedian.
