Brett Eidman (http://www.bretteidman.com) is the funniest comedian to come around in a long time.
As bold a statement as that is, I firmly believe it. "What's So F#@k'n Funny?" is an album that should carry a different kind of warning label than the Parental Advisory one that it already does. It should carry a warning against listening while operating a motor vehicle. As I was driving, I put on the album. I got to "The Priest Molestation Hotline" and laughed until I was choking and almost drove off of the road.
From the wistful "Ode to Scruffy" to the plaintive "I
Don't Like Bush", Eidman skillfully evokes tears of laughter and joy from his audience. Eidman is versatile in that he is as equally skilled at performing musical comedy as he is at comedic skits. As a concession to potential radio programmers, Eidman includes four bonus clean tracks of explicit songs also on the album.
