David Cross is coming this way

Anyone seen him?
Just on the various comedy specials. 20, 25 years ago, I'd jump at it. But his stand-up hasn't been good in at least 15 years. Too much of a snobby liberal mocking yahoos in a pretty obvious way. I'd go if it were free, but not if my bank account drops.
I'll go if doc is paying
Then you have to heckle "Odenkirk is better" until you're thrown out.

I can DEFINITELY do that
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Cross'll play to an empty theater if he enforces rejection on any audience member who heckles that.

Popped in my head, a reminder that Patton Oswalt's stand-up was once exceptional.
I'll try to find it, but one of Patton's funniest bits ever is of him describing how he performed to an extremely drunk crowd. I'll see if my Google-fu is working and try and post it here if I find it.

ETA: Well, here it is:

As an aside, for some reason The Algorithm on social media places has been serving up sponsored stand up comedy clips for some ungodly reason. I have yet to find a single clip even approaching amusing.

I'll try to find it, but one of Patton's funniest bits ever is of him describing ow he performed almost balck-out drunk to a crowd just as drunk. I'll see if my Google-fu is working and try and post it here if I find it.

Trudeau (or maybe Biden) won't let me see it. Are you talking about him imitating an amateur stand-up called Dr. Pepper who fell asleep during his routine?
