Isn't the same Eddie from the 80's.
Trying to get him to do standup these days is like trying to get Prince to perform Darling Nikki or Let's Pretend We're Married again.
Can he still throw down on stage? Yes
Will he? Probably not
Anyone who has been around him has said that he still has the comedic skills.
There seems to be some kind of psychological fear of doing stand up that he's not really ready to deal with.
Maybe he just doesn't want to do it anymore.
To use the P reference again...its kind of like doing a revolution reunion
It's what the fans want.
It makes sense to the outside world.
But for him....It's probably too painful to go back to that place again
Makes no sense to me
But I have no idea what they have to go through to be that person again.
It's easier said than done
