Aspen – The grandfather of insult comedy, Don Rickles, will make his first appearance at the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in this Colorado mountain resort town next month.
The event, which runs Feb. 28-March 4, will also feature George Carlin, Steven Wright and Katt Williams.
The festival will present its first “Pinnacle Award” this year to Rickles for his 50-plus year career. A documentary on Rickles by John Landis, called “The Rickles Project,” will be screened during the festival.
The festival, hosted by HBO, is in its 13th year.
