If anyone thinks my show was 'pretty good,' then I've completely failed.

[Joan Rivers] is fantastic. AND SHE'S 80! There's no 80-year-old pitcher. If you're a running back and you're 28 they're like, "Oh, here he goes, turning the corner on his career, he's on the downswing..."

[George Carlin] was obsessive about time; he was obsessive compulsive about his material and making things shorter and more perfect. He did an HBO hour every other year. It's live; you have to be off-stage at 55 minutes. It's a network; you've got to be off. And it's perfect.

The anxiety is, "Are they going to come?" and when you get there and it's full you say, "I'm good. I can stop freaking out." But when it's four days out and they're scrambling to find more radio shows and Good Morning Phoenix and all these weird shows, then that gets very tiring.

I know content-wise I leave nothing to chance. I have no anxiety about what I'm going to do once I'm out on stage.

You can vibe out when people are getting tired or they're too drunk to keep going along with.

'Christopher Walken' is my "Hotel California," but I've done it so much
