DAAS: Dead & Alive (1993 Video)
"If you're happy and you know it... "
24 February 2004
If you saw DAAS in their previous LIVE video "Live at the Capital Theatre" then you are in for a real treat here. This show goes so much further.... pushes the envelope wide open and slaps us with a constant barrage of insults, profanity (derr) and beer. How is it possible for these guys to offend us so much and yet we come running back for more?

This show marks the peak for the Allstars. The material is fresh, the presentation is polished and flawless. In the previous video, there were a few glitches here and there (Tim's Japanese Alphabet Joke fell flat in the ass) but "Dead & Alive" flows from start to finish with out a hick-up. It is pure comedy craftsmanship.

The guys have since gone on to what they may consider greener pastures. Hmmm... more like thicker wallets. I have enjoyed each of them sperately in their own rights since DAAS broke up... but they will never again strike this kind of originality. The magic of DAAS is that they each feed off each other. There is no ONE great member of DASS. They are all brilliant as a trio. Paul's routine wouldnt work without Richards and likewise with Tim's. These guys need each other as much as we need them.

You will never see a more original and funnier live show.

I give this one 10 out of 10.
