Chappelle fails to see the light

It's all over the internet. Associated Press is reporting that Dave Chappelle "shattered the Laugh Factory's endurance record" by doing a six-hour, seven-minute set Sunday night.

FOS Joe Starr writes:
I have great respect for Dave Chapelle, so I mean to take away nothing when I say, "Yes, it's impressive that he broke the Laff Factory's endurance record, but..." He did six hours and seven minutes straight. He broke Dane Cook's record of three hours and change, which was set a few weeks ago.

But, as always, so few people know their comedy history. G. David Howard is actually in the Guinness Book of World Records for the longest set in stand-up history - he did 16 hours straight without a break and without repeating a joke.

Once again the old timers get shoved aside.

Comments (Note: Comments do not necessarily reflect the opinion of SHECKYmagazine.com):
I've performed with Joe Starr, and his set usually FEELS like 16 hours.

Psych!!!
