Mitch Hedberg

I’ve been wanting to find some of this guy’s stuff for years — never having the presence of mind to actually write his name down while hearing him on XM Comedy and then track something of his down afterwards.
He actually came up in a conversation the other day with a friend, and upon realizing that this guy shared my enthusiasm for Hedberg, I then promptly found out that he was dead.
The feeling I can’t shake is that if I had gotten into him earlier, i.e. found his content on iTunes and spread the word, etc., he maybe wouldn’t have died. It’s like, I postponed my expression of interest and he paid the price for it. Lame, I know, but it’s crossed my mind.
Anyway, this guy was an uber-genius. He was a total god – I mean, like one of the best ever. If you haven’t heard anything of his, go to iTunes and partake of the goodness. It’ll be well worth your time.
