Everyone has always known that musicians are funny.  Even if it isn’t intentional (or even if its the second hand “smoke”), you will usually get more laughs in a rock club green room than you will at a local comedy club.  Lately, artists like Flight of the Conchords are inviting all of us into their world of rock gags by simultaneously having a comedy show on tv as well as a record on a rock label.  Tim and Eric are more subtle than that.  They most likely won’t be showing up on the SubPop roster anytime soon; but they have roped a rock booking agent into put them in rock clubs all around the country.  I saw them last year at the crocodile and I have never been so compelled by two dudes in make up dancing to inside jokes they recorded in GarageBand.  They have really tapped into the most wonderful aspect of things that suck.   If you think they are funny, you will become obsessed.  If you aren’t sure what the fuss is about, you probably never will.  Check out their antics at timanderic.com and if you love a good Kelsey Gramar quote as much as I do, you will be at Neumos tonight to witness this.
