Great Stillness

Great Stillness

Eddie Pepitone, known to many as â€œThe Bitter Buddha,â€ comes across like some powerful alchemistâ€™s admixture of Doug Stanhope, Jamie Kilstein, and Lewis Black---or maybe itâ€™s a cross between classic, sardonic Bill Hicks and modern, relatable RenÃ© Hicks (minus the rollerskates). No matter how you try to define him, Pepitoneâ€™s already one step ahead: so deep into self-judgment that he can give a master lesson in heckling himself. A demonstration:
1) Know your target.
2) Reveal the embarrassing.
3) Donâ€™t be afraid to go off-topic.
4) Doctor-patient confidentiality has nothing to do with comedy.
5) Understand that doing a meta-bit in which you heckle yourself is the height of self-sabotage.
Pepitone is a master of aggressive tweeting and self-defense and can spot a gang member at 20 paces (the suits, ties, and smiles are the giveaway). The Norma Rae of porn unions and a mourner of the ascot, Pepitone says bluntly, â€œItâ€™s all about pain here tonight. It all hurts, and it hurts a lot.â€ See, being an incarnation of the Buddha isnâ€™t all smiles and sunshine: itâ€™s truth. The truth of pain, the choice of suffering. And if you want to stave off suffering, one glorious CD full of directness, short-lived cause commitment (he, too, can be an ardent vegan for 20 minutes if he gets too bored on Netflix), and great Tweets from history might just be the thing.
