OK, how often are you going to great a comedy benefit show that’s supporting Planned Parenthood that will be in the back of a comic book store that will have Mandy Moore and Colin Hanks on the bill AND have a fun name like Feliz Navipod?

As far as we know, it’s just The Feliz Navipod Holiday Variety Show! happening next Monday at Nerdmelt Showroom.

Tickets are $15 and you can (and should) get them here.

Don’t Stop or We’ll Die was another example of the wonderful silliness that emanated from Harris Wittels. He played drums for the band that walked a fine line between solid pop and comedy along with Paul Rust and Michael Cassady.

A great music video for their song Lisa was just released today.

Watch, enjoy, and remember fondly.

1) LA Comedy Shorts Festival taking place mostly at the Downtown Independent Theater April 7th-11th. Details here.

2) Last night at the Tomorrow Show presents WEIRD, I got a chance to see Paul Rust, Harris Wittels, and Michael Cassady as newly formed band “Don’t Stop or We’ll Die”, as one hell of a comical musical ruckus. They’re playing at Meltdown Comics April 23rd 8PM $8. Do. Not. Miss. This.

3) Continuing in awesome comedy music acts that I saw last night at the Tomorrow Show, I had a chance to be berated for not being from Portland by MOP, which was not at all shocking and also, hilarious. Though this clip isn’t “music”, but since I don’t know where they’re playing next, it’ll have to do.

4) The Tip of the Hat this week (technically, last week) goes to none other than Paul F. Tompkins for making it to his 9th Anniversary Show. Article to follow today (Seriously, it will come out later today. I didn’t write/post it last night because I would have started punching walls if I stayed at the Bureau offices for another minute yesterday)
