Happy Birthday to #DaveChappelle This photograph is of #CharlieBarnett who was a street comedian whose stage was #WashingtonSquarePark! I’m definitely one of the kids in the background of this photo. I first met Dave when he would go around with a basket and collect money from the crowd for Charlie. I guess he was Charlie’s protege. It was 1986 and I was a freshman @nyutisch only 16 years old and everyday I would go in the park to watch Charlie do his standup. Best education I ever got watching his #comedy. I learned so much about comedic timing just from watching the crowd reacting to Charlie’s jokes. #EddieMurphy was my movie G-d but I never got to see him perform live. If I remember correctly, Charlie actually got the part @Saturday Night Live when they were looking for a new comedian but then got fired and that’s how I think Eddie Murphy got hired on the show. I spent hundreds of hours studying Charlie’s comedy probably much more than I spent studying in #FilmSchool! It paid off because I eventually befriended Charlie and Dave and I believe #RushHour would of never been what it was if I hadn’t of been a true student of Charlie’s comedy. Of course Eddie was my biggest inspiration with his films #BeverlyHillsCop and
#48Hours I actually think Charlie really liked and trusted me because he and Dave would come to my dorm room @nyuweinstein on #UniversityPlace and count the collections of the day and talk about Charlie’s set and how the crowd was. I felt blessed to be exposed to this. One day I remember that Charlie was spending an extraordinary amount of time in my bathroom while Dave was counting out all the money. Dave usually did the counting because Charlie’s fingers were deformed and looked like E.T. I will never forget the rancid smell that was coming from under the door and into my small dorm room. I asked Dave what that smell was and he said “That’s Crack” I never heard of that before and he said it was like #Freebasing #Cocaine only stronger and explained that Charlie was a #Crackhead. So, if your wondering why I am posting a photo of #CharlieBarnett on Dave’s Birthday this is why! I am sure he was a big inspiration to Dave as well! #RIPCharlieBarnett
