It was pretty good but I was dissappointed by how many jokes I had heard before. I saw him when he was in Minneapolis about 2 years ago and he came back at the end of February.

I don't know if guys like Louis CK and Bill Burr raise expectations so high that you get bummed out when you hear repeat material. He is a funny guy though and he has unique ways to get into jokes and subjects. Hoping him and Jeselnik are the next two who can hang on

I think it's hard to compare anyone to those two. I cant remember what podcast I was listening to, but a couple comedians were talking about Burr and they made a great point.

He (and Louis for that matter) have such well defined characters and points of view that they can walk into any place or situation and you'd want to hear what they had to say about it. Hannibal is a very good comedian but I don't think he has a defined POV (yet) so material isn't as easy to generate for him as say Burr or CK or O'Neal when he was alive.
