Video: Bonnaroo Week – David Cross

This week’s videos feature acts that you should check out at Bonnaroo

Sure you can spend your entire weekend in Manchester seeing music from a buffet of genres, but then you’d be neglecting all the high quality talent that will be appearing at the fully air-conditioned comedy theater. Since 2005, fest organizers have brought a veritable who’s who of the best comedians around to perform, and this year is no different. While we highly recommend taking the time to check out some comedy, if you’ve only got time on your busy ‘roo schedule to see one act, we’d like to make the case for David Cross.

David Cross

While Cross might be best known of late for role as the never-nude, “analrapist” Tobias Funke on Arrested Development, he’s been one of the faces of the alt.comedy scene since the early ’90s – thanks in part his acerbic, whip-smart stand-up material and his innovative and much beloved HBO sketch show Mr. Show. Cross, who made his Bonnaroo debut back to 2007, has taken a break from the stand-up scene over the last handful of years, so expect brand-new material.

Let’s check out this bit from Cross’ most-recent stand-up special 2010’s Bigger and Blackerer about Coors Light beer drinking innovations and ridiculous SkyMall products…

You’ll have a couple of opportunities to catch David Cross in action, as he will appear at the Bonnaroo Comedy Theater with James Adomian on Saturday from 4:30 to 5:45 PM, and again on Sunday afternoon from 2:45 – 4:00 PM.
