Unfortunately most of his attempts to be Serious fail miserably, because he's just so good at being funny. (I wish he'd realise that he has enormous respect from people as a serious comic artiste :))<BR/>Anyway, he likes to push his audiences, take them away from straight comic routines and dare them to still like him. He seemed to really enjoyed the falling away of the crowd from day to day as he read. I really enjoyed him reading, and it only adds to my admiration of him as a comedy guru.
