Product Shop NYC sent out friend Amit to Bonnaroo last weekend to do some interviews, send some reports and live like a refugee.
On that point of refugee-camp conditions, while the porta-potties smelled, well, as expected, the truck that emptied out the showers smelled, surprisingly amazing. True, the showers themselves were damn dirty, but imagine going to the drug store, buying every single bottle of shampoo and soap, emptying em all into a big ol' vat of human blech...the shampoo/soap tincture will dominate the nasal passages of any passerby. And I was one of those passerby. And I thoroughly enjoyed that moment. Quite possibly the best "Come From Behind Surprise Moment" of the weekend.
Anyway, here are some recordings of the press conferences I attended there (Some are NSFW):
_David Cross on how performing comedy at festivals is different....
_David Cross with a wise quote on friendship...
_Lewis Black, on what he's most scared of (exclusive, wow!).....
