Well the thing about Gallagher is he was really the first one to take fresh fruit and smash it on stage. It was really groundbreaking and influencial for new school fruit smashing comedians.

You know, no one ever mentions Gallaghers political and social commentary, which takes up 45 minutes of the show.
- The Sleeper - 04-20-2004
He was really the first one to combine both political and social commentary and the smashing of various fruits. It was really groundbreaking.

Is that what the ponchos are for in the first few rows? Does he shower the audience with aborted fetuses during the political portion of the show?
- The Sleeper - 04-20-2004
Yes.
- Galt - 04-20-2004
that is pretty cutting edge.
Not quite as cutting edge as "take my wife....please". Henny Youngman certainly should have been higher.

take my wife...please is a classic line

little known fact...gallagher shared his act with his twin brother who toured simultaneously in different locations.
- The Jays - 04-20-2004
I think his twin bro sued him, and got control of all his material.

If cloning were legal, it would immediately jumpstart the economy by having thousands of Gallagher shows simultaneously running around the world.

Black Gallagher was amazing.
- Galt - 04-20-2004
Black Bush is better.
- Keyser Soze - 04-20-2004
Agreed.
