David Cross discusses his past performances and gave this little tidbit about W&L I assume...PERFORMER (AS TWANGLY JACKSON):
Up in Boston, I was doing this character, Twangly Jackson, a tone-deaf guy from a foreign country doing Christmas songs. Tom Kenny, who was later in Mr. Show, was a comic-relief guy on Friday Night Videos and he was like, “Oh, that’ll make a great little piece for the comedy segment I do.” So I drove down to New York. It was, like, a 30-second commercial for Twangly Jackson’s Best of Christmas album. It wasn’t very funny, but it was the very first time where, you know, I could call up my mom and say, “Hey, I’m going to be on TV. I made it. I’m a super-duper star.”

[The bit featured] two women who for a short-lived period of time were Prince’s backup singers, and I asked one of them out for some drinks. Her reply was that she couldn’t go out because — and this obviously left an impression, because I remember it — she had an eye appointment the next day. You don’t want to be fucked up for an eye appointment!Courtesy of: NBC
