Eric Drysdale is a writer and comedian most will recognize as the stage manager "Bobby" on The Colbert Report (see Bobby as a leprechaun in the clip at the end of this post). Drysdale is also a writer on the show and previously wrote for The Daily Show. In addition, he's performed several times at the UCB Theater and also played with Tammy Faye Starlite, a satirical country band.
However, none of those credits could answer a question that's been nagging at me ever since I first saw Eric/Bobby appear on The Colbert Report: where had I seen this person before? After a bit of Web searching, I finally solved the mystery: in 2000, he appeared on an episode of Premium Blend singing "This Rubik's Cube is Driving Me Crazy," a song he performed under the stage name "Crazy Davis" according to this thread.
