Bill Burr

Renowned comedian Bill Burr will provide the laughs Friday at Table Mountain. He’s famous for his insult comedy, sarcasm, and satire. He’s been doing it for decades.

Burr is a Grammy Award and Primetime Emmy Award nominee. He has released multiple stand-up comedy specials. In 2017, Rolling Stone ranked him at No. 17 on its list of the “50 Best Stand-Up Comics of All Time.” He’s also an actor, writer, producer, and podcaster.

He’s been in feature films like “The King of Staten Island,” “The Front Runner,” “Daddy’s Home,” and “Old Dads.” Burr has hosted “Saturday Night Live.” He has notable roles in television and streaming shows like “The Mandalorian,” “Reservation Dogs,” and “Breaking Bad.” He lent his voice to the adult animated show he created for Netflix, “F is For Family.”

Linkin Park and Nirvana Tributes

The Linkin Park Tribute will rock the Tower Theatre crowd this Friday along with Nirvanna, a tribute to Nirvana.

The Linkin Park Tribute originates from Florida and its replication of the nu-metal giant is spot on. They’ll play anthems like “In The End,” “Crawling,” and “Somewhere I Belong.”

The closest musical act to come close to emulating Nirvana at its peak in 1991 is Nirvanna. They’ve done an exceptional job of bringing back the spirit of the pioneering band that defined grunge. “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” “Come As You Are,” and “Lithium” will boom through the venue.
