The amazing thing about Billy is he once said in an interview I saw that he never wrote material down he just had key points in his head and went from there on stage so each performance was not scripted. He said if he wrote it down it ruined the material and he wanted it to come out fresh and not rehearsed on the night.
So sad to see that Billy has retired from stand up due to Parkinson's but he has left such a legacy and an incredible body of work. He really was a natural.

Yea me too! He had us in the palm of his hand the whole time, I don't think you can learn that, you either have it or you don't.
