From: Ellen K. 

I saw him live at the Troubadour before he was known.  (Yes, I'm dating
myself but everyone here already knows I'm ancient.)  He did a routine
about high school, how the white guys would kind of toss their heads to get
their hair into place after the post-gym shower, but when he tried it
nothing happened... and he had the movement down pat.  This doesn't
translate to words very well, but it was a terrific routine.
