LEXINGTON, KY, April 24, 2006 -- Lewis Black’s newest album, Lewis Black: The Carnegie Hall Performance, is positively sidesplitting. Black’s humor takes aim at many of the idiosyncrasies permeating American culture over the last few years. Black takes aim at everything from Dr. Phil and candy corn, to airline security and Yom Kippur all in his trademark sputtering rants. The Carnegie Hall Performance is Lewis Black in rare form – a treat for fans of this great comic both new and old. This performance, released on April 25th 2006 in a 2 CD set is available at comedycentral.com as well as amazon.com and many other retailers.

Black has been doing standup for many years now and has appeared on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart as well as Late Night with Conan O’Brien. Black can also be seen in the film, Farce of the Penguins, along with Jim Belushi and Jason Alexander, which is now filming.
