Dave Chappelle, Flight of the Conchords to headline Funny or Die Oddball tour this summer

You’ve been waiting for another Flight of the Conchords tour for years.

You’ve been waiting for a legitimate Dave Chappelle stand-up tour for years, too.

How about seeing them on tour together?!?

It’s happening over five weekends in August and September in a town or city near you in America, thanks to Funny or Die’s Oddball Comedy & Curiosity Festival — pairing up Chappelle and FOTC, with two stages of support acts that will include (depending upon your city) Al Madrigal, Brody Stevens, Chris D’EliaDemetri Martin, Hannibal Buress, Jim Jefferies, John Mulaney, Kristen Schaal, and many more.

The tour starts Aug. 23, 2013, in Austin, Texas, and ends a month later in Phoenix. In between: 13 cities, with dates on Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays.

Tickets go on sale June 21 at 10 a.m. Eastern at www.livenation.com or www.funnyordie.com/oddball.

  1. Looks like the 10 a.m. sale time is not Eastern but time zone dependent. Don’t yet have available tickets in central time zone, but it is 10:17 Eastern.
