I featured for Kevin before he passed. It was the only show my mom made it to see me do standup due to her poor health. After the show, Kevin talked to her and made me sound like the greatest comic walking the planet. One of the kindest people I ever met in the business. I miss him.

2016 Sucks! The news of Kevin Meaney's passing has broken my heart and made me feel old as fuck. I'm 55 and my three daughters are now all grown but, they too, sing the "I Don't Care" song (at just the right moments). Please keep Kevin Meaney alive - talk about big pants, Wayne Newton, putting out your eye and, obviously, breaking into "I Don't Care!" every opportunity you can. PS - It blew my mind when I learned that "I Don't Care" wasn't "his" song (derp!) but was first song by Judy Garland in an old Hollywood musical called "In The Good Old Summertime." Look it up on KZitem and blow your mind, too! R.I.P Kevin Meaney - thank you for all the belly laughs and "the music." Chris & Noreen

You are right, I think we saw Sweeney-Meaney at the Garage on Comm Ave, would that be right? probably around 1980-ish? They were just so funny, Louis CK wrote a nice tribute to Kevin Meaney, he considered him kind of a mentor. Meaney should have been much more famous, you see guys like Adam Sandler worth 300 million...ridiculous, makes horrible movies IMO. Meaney was so talented.

Kathy H Thanks, I'll be sure to look for that Louis CK tribute. Speaking of comedic geniuses, L CK is another one. You have excellent taste in comedy! There are certain types of humor which just slay me. Maybe it's the elements of self-amusement, silliness and surreality which these guys all have. I'd add Steve Martin to the list. For sure, Adam Sandler and his type are not on my list. (Remember to wear your big pants when you leave the house. And get that puss off your face! You don't see the other comedians with the puss on their faces. Why do you do this to your father and I?) hahaha
