He has a point though (although not very eloquently made). I never got the point of people heckling comedians. They are professionals and funnier than you, either sit down, laugh and enjoy yourself or fuck off. You are the audience, not the show.

I actually have very little problem w mr hicks in that clip...

He even made a sort of apology at the end, referring to the hole he had dug for hisself.

Definitely seen worse onstage freakouts.

yeah but for a lot of comedians audience involvement is part of the show, most of them spend a long time taking the piss of audience members who on the whole take it fairly well, so why shouldn't he expect a little in return?
