Tom Green

“My bum is on the man! Bum is on the man! It’s a lot of fun to put your bum on a man,” sings Tom Green in his 1999 music video “Lonely Swedish (The Bum Bum Song).” A nonsensical rump-centric romp, the clip debuted on the Canadian jokester’s short-lived MTV variety show, “The Tom Green Show.” He also appeared in a number of films in the years that followed, including the critically panned Freddy Got Fingered. A divisive figure in turn-of-the-century comedy, the oddball comic cultivated a loyal cult following after his brief but memorable reign. Green performs Thursday through Saturday, November 8 through 10, at the Vermont Comedy Club in Burlington.
