Please, don't recommend your own. I've heard pretty much every stand up comic there is, and if anybody mentions Jim Davidson i will hunt you down.

definite vote for Hicks here, only one on the list I like (though I like what I've seen of Bill Bailey)

Where's Dane Cook? (turns and runs away)
 
Of that bunch I would go with Chris Rock.

LOLLOLLOL

You can't hide from me

Chris Rock is a genius Clap

I'll give my thought out vote to Ross Noble, i can watch him for hours and not get remotely bored. Do ghosts change their clothes? LOL

Well I'm going to act like a Tool fanboy and vote Hicks. Chris Rock swears way too much IMO. Not like Hicks didn't, but at least Hicks had more of an intelligent point to make.

I like Hicks a lot. He was quite brilliant, but man just seeing the look on Chris Rock's face cracks me up. That guy is funny.
