Well, that just killed any hopes I still had it was a joke..

Pacrappa and I went to see him live in Seattle and he was so drugged out and drunk that he threw up all over himself in the first show without telling any jokes and didn't even make it to the second show (which I stood in line for like 3 hours for, I didn't see the first show). This was a long time coming, he had gangrene in his leg like 6 months ago and they were supposedly going to amputate it.

I was pissed at him for being a dick and not even being able to perform he was so wasted, but he didn't deserve to die. He was a funny mofo and it is a shame he couldn't man up and get his life together.

I was lucky enough to see him sober or relatively sober as I'm sure he smoked up to relax before a show. He could've been bigger than anybody -- he was better than 90% of the comics out there.

It really, really better be.

im with mzo, he was a really talented comic, probably my favorite in the current generation. it would be a real tragedy to lose him.

A friend of my girlfriend went to see him on Saturday in Richmond and he didn't show up. Probably out doing... far too much heroin.

Mitch was definately on his way up. His joke writing skills were phenomenal, during a time when most comics just rely on delivery. He will be missed.

This is the only celebrity death I've actually felt in probably forever.

Brings back memories of Bill Hicks...

that was the thing though, he had exceptional delivery too. the writing was great, his on stage personality was great, everything worked. this is a waste, he could have been so much more.
