Bostonist Interview: Janeane Garofalo

Interview with Janeane Garofalo at AltCom09 in Somerville, MA from Tom Lewis on Vimeo.

Janeane Garofalo's performance at AltCom09 last Friday was easily the highlight of the evening. While there had been concern that her performance would be interrupted by conservative "teabaggers", a fearless Garofalo jumped into the audience at her first opportunity which delighted the crowd and set the tone for her set (see the video after the jump for excerpts). As a fan of her character on "24", Janis Gold, her reading of dialogue from the show was particularly funny.

After her set, Garofalo kindly answered a few questions for us.

Between Garofalo's appearance, and the many great moments that occurred every night of AltCom, we urge you not to miss AltCom next year.
