Whoopi Goldberg - years and years ago

Lily Tomlin (in "The search for signs of intelligent life in the universe&quot

Bill Engvall

Ron White

Joan Rivers - years and years ago

Robin Williams

Gallagher - years and years ago

Dennis Miller - years and years ago - was the point in which I realized he wasn't funny unless it was on SNL's "Weekend Update" - which he was on at the time - and ironically, the opening act was much funnier:

Rita Rudner - years and years ago, but a second time in Vegas

Louie Anderson - Vegas

Sean Morey (relatively obscure)

That's all I can think of for now ...

adding:

HOW THE HELL COULD I FORGET KATHY GRIFFEN!!!

Jeff Dunham - yeah, I know, I know. But Mrs. ZBDent was really wanting to see him. Had the unlistenable "guitar guy" open for him.
