This live concert by stand-up comedian Tom Wilson (Biff Tannen from Back To The Future) offers witty, family friendly commentary and humorous musical performances.
I agree with you, 100%. I was sampling the comedy of Robin Williams and he was too fast, talked too much and was way too vulgar and as a result... was freaking obnoxious! Tom Wilson has just the right amount of being funny and less vulgar... Much less! Tom is much more fun to watch and listen to!
I was thinking the same thing after watching him on some BTF panels... he easily could play an overprotective Dad in a family sitcom. Heck, a sitcom based on his life as an actor known for one key role, intimidating his daughter's boyfriends and dealing with his "monkey boy" son... practically writes itself.
I saw Tom perform at the Comedy Store in Vegas around 1989 or 1990. I had no idea how funny Biff could be. Then I met him after the show and he was one of the nicest guys I ever got a chance to talk to. Genuinely down to earth and personable. I've been a fan ever since.
Holy crap, man! I didn't know this guy was THAT good! For 30 years of my like I had him in my mind as Biff because he has been vanished from movies. And now, thanks to this video, I'm completely surprised about his talent!
Before he appeared at a convention in Portland, OR in 2009 I got to drink with him at a Marriott bar. Coolest guy ever, picked up everybody’s tab, completely down to earth and so much fun! Thanks Tom!! Those coconut shrimp and drinks were appreciated!
"she's my daughter" had me laughing fr. Tom is a genuinely good stand up comedian who has mastered the art that is comedic timing and deliverance. However... get that man a fan, the sweat HAD ME
Tom Wilson was hands down the underrated actors and performers of our lifetime. As the character Biff Tannen you would have never imagined him to be one of the nicest people ever but he is no doubt. He is one of the most loved people in Hollywood and this guy would give the shirt off his back for you.
I really found myself laughing out loud tons of times!!! Tom you are such an amazing comedian! I am now a big fan!!! You are much funnier than a lot of big name comedians out there now.
I always wondered, “that’s got to be rough, being defined in most peoples’ minds by one thing you did back in your twenties.” I kinda figured the whole cast suffers from ‘back to the future syndrome’ but I love how he’s turned it into a joke and has fun with it. Wish I could have seen more of him in Freaks and Geeks, but we all do :)
What can you say about a man of this caliber? This is a man who takes his crafts and his craftsmanship very seriously, and yet he is very down to Earth. The only thing that comes to mind is: Mr. Wilson, you have done a great job. I have been well-entertained, and even educated by you. You, sir, are a credit to mankind--more so than you realize. If I could do half if what you do, I would truly feel accomplished.
His improv and acting skills really get him through those comic "where you from" moments when you lose your place in the act. Dint happen often, but he really was able to get right back into the rhythm. Great job.
Imagine if you did a movie that resonates for a generation and people only recognize you for that one movie. I love how he worked it into his shtick right away😅.
Tom Wilson, great actor! He made his mark in "Back to the Future", Biff. 👍👏👏👏 ( Grande ator, marcou no "de volta para o futuro", Biff. 👍👏👏👏 Brasil - São Paulo )
This is so funny that I started to weaze like an asthmatic tuba player. I laughed until I went purple and my daughter thought I needed CPR. She didn't want me to watch it again because she was scared I woud faint. But I'm over 40....
Singer, painter, actor, cartoon voice, comedian--this is Thomas Wilson. With these talents, they need to make a movie to showcase him for something other than a bully. He has just too much talent; he's too much of an artist. He'd be good in one of those "crazy neighbor" movies where he saves Christmas. He'd make a damn good "Uncle Buck.". P. S. Keep "Thunderbird," by Ray Anthony, in the movie and play it in the Introduction instead of the end.
I think it is totally insane how he actually look the way they made him up to look for the 80s timelines that goes to show the talent of the people who aged those actors
The delivery has to be raw and real!.. works better if you're being yourself and not faking it because the people can tell!..cuz its all eyes on you.. I did notice his delivery it's on point. may not be the funniest guy on the planet but he's got the chops because he's got the experience..
As a band lifer (taught band for 35 years), Tom’s the one comic who speaks to us! And as the father of twin 17-year old thirst traps, I play his song for them once every couple of months… just to make sure THEY understand their dad’s position on their dates.
MISSED OPPORTUNITY, MR. WILSON!!!! At 24:05 .... "I'm 13 years old, I step in the stuff (horse poop)...." *should have added* "... now I'm definitely screaming 'MANURE! I HATE MANURE!!!' " Love ya, Biff.
I've thought about this quite a bit since seeing this great routine by Tom. He is so REAL, so much a "regular guy", yet he has excellent talent and public speaking ability, I think he would be an EXCELLENT late night TV host. I think Johnny Carson will always be the King and the highest example to try and emulate. Tom Wilson, just like Johnny C, is just a regular guy at heart. I believe Tom Wilson would Thrive, and actually be as good and popular as Johnny Carson and David Letterman. Just my opinion, but I have thought about this a lot. But, Tom W is so grounded in reality and probably HAPPY with his home life, he just doesn't NEED IT, like most of the shallow types that are presented to us now.
I watched this video over a year ago, and thought it was funny, but didn't officially "like" it or leave a comment. I watched it again a week ago, and have had flashbacks of this video, that make me laugh out loud, four days in a row now! The songs starting at 51:56, and the Haiku songs are so silly, that I crack up out loud when I think about them again later! Thanks for the comedy Tom! and thanks for the upload Dorota Gniedziejko!
Wow... Awesome Special Tom... The USO counts!...The Fighting-Thespians... Lol ...I'm a translucent American too!!! Also part Vanilla bean... ;) 100% Eternal Gypsy and proud of it! Wow, Pres. of the debate team... impressive! Flag girls.. Lol. Tuba makes sense... upper body strength! DRUM MAJOR... just like my nephew Will Adams!!! My brother Tim Adams... has 4 kids as well. Lol... Who gave you SKITTLES!!! I have just one kid... I did it right the first time and stopped!... ;) Lol ...Free Pens!... I'm the king of pens!!! God love you Tom!!!
The song is actually really catchy and I was laughing the whole time but the funniest part was the fact that I wondered about everything he answered in that song😂😂😂
