While Bonnaroo has certainly built its reputation on the the diverse and high quality amount of music that they book each year, they are certainly no slouches when it comes to doing the same with top flight comedy acts. Over the course of the fest’s 11-year history they’ve nabbed everyone from mega-superstars like Chris Rock, Lewis CK and Conan O’Brien to established vets like David Cross, Patton Oswalt and Lewis Black to up and comers like John Mulaney and Donald Glover. Last week fest organizer’s revealed this year’s slate of comedians that will be taking the stage at the fully air-conditioned Comedy Theatre. As expected the lineup includes a fantastic mix of names including the likes of Aziz Ansari, Steven Wright, Marc Maron, Garfunkel & Oates, Amy Shumer and Colin Hay (yes, that Colin Hay, from Men At Work fame).
