The Firesign Theatre these guys were very funny, still laugh when i think about it , hey stat can you down load a clip , for all the young guys  :79-

They're still touring! I just saw them last year in person. They've slowed down a bit, but are still very funny.

I think that for the uninitiated, the best choice is Nick Danger: Thrid Eye, from the 1969 album, How Can You be in two Places at Once When You're Not Anywhere at All?

I like Bozos and other skits better, but this is about as "normal" as they ever got, and its fairly easy to follow. :97- :97-
There aren't too many places where there are four separate dialogs going on at the same time, which was a trademark of theirs.

Youtube also doesn't have an unedited version of Bozos, and the guy matched it up with video that detracts from the bizarre nature of the piece (not to mention that at least half is missing).

So here is Nick Danger. Unfortunately, the guy cut off the end where it turns out that the person listening to the radio was George Tirebiter as an old man. :37-
