Default Louis C.K. fans- new live show released online today

Instead of just releasing it as a DVD, C.K. just put it up on his website, costs $5. Can do it through PayPal, even if you don't have an account, it lets you set up a "1 time only" transaction through it (that's what I did).

Just finished er, absolute gold as usual. If you don't watch it, I hope you end up in a pile of F bodies.

Just bought it, putting it on my iPhone now. Thanks!

Awesome that it's only $5. Makes me less inclined to torrent it and more willing to pay for it!

Good job, Louis.

People got smart with itnernet sales.
I find that if I come across something that is "pay what you want" from free to infinity, then I automatically provide a payment that I feel proper. Otherwise.. just an a-hole torrenting for free

Bought. I love Louis CK and probably would've watched it anyway...but bought because I think sometimes the only way to make yourself heard is with your wallet.

Just wondering if anyone can confirm, is it all new material?

Even if it's not, I'll probably send Louis $5 anyway, since he's gold.

Edit: Purchased and downloading now. It's actually a 1.2 GB mp4 file at 1280x720 - nice.

Cool, I bought it and downloading it now.

For $5 I'll give Louis CK my money, the guy is a comedic genius and probably the funniest guy alive today.

Everyone, you should choose the download option just so you have a back-up. He tells you about this, but just be aware if you just want to stream it.

Yep 100% new material. I've heard a couple of the bits - or forms of them anyway, seems like he's always altering/growing his jokes - from talkshows earlier this year, but aside from that its all fresh.

Its good too man, that guy always somehow manages to meet my increasingly high expectations when I watch his yearly new live show. LCK is a golden god.

I have zero problems paying for this. No DRM, inexpensive, money straight to the creator? No need to pirate it.

Ill be honest, I didn't think it was that good... at least, not as good as his other material.

I watched an interview with Louis CK once and he basically said that one of his biggest influences was George Carlin. The way George would have his material, tour, then throw it all away and write new material from scratch after the tour was over. You'll never seen two George Carlin specials with the same material in them. Louis does it the same way.
