The Found Footage Festival

Despite having heard of it for years, I'd never actually seen the live version of The Found Footage Festival. If you're not familiar, founders Joe Pickett and Nick Prueher collect various VHS footage (no youtube) and compile them together into a well-presented quasi-stand-up-comedy / DVD-of-absurdity. You can browse their site for a long time and be ridiculously entertained - I recommend you do so.

The show is currently on the road with this Brooklyn Brewery MASH tour - an eleven city tour obviously intended to put the Brooklyn Brewery brand in a "Cool" spot in your mind. The best part, it's actually well done and well worth keeping up with. It has an awesome trailer, a fine Tumblog and associations with the likes of Found Footage Fest. Not too shabby.
