Their latest CD, Live At 42 Walnut Crescent is one of the funniest CD's I've ever heard.

Has anyone heard of these guys and if you have, what do you think of their work??

 

[CatsGirl]

Are they supposed to be funny???

 

[Pornstar]

They are totally pants. not funny at all.

 

[blurton]

They are so lame. Not funny at all. You are the first person I've known who thinks they're funny.

 

[mattyc2422]

I admit, I think they are quite good.

 

[crudbucket]

Sorry, but they are about as amusing as having a spoonful of sand in your vaseline ...

Weren't they the duo who did that song about a decade back 'Bloody Jeff'?, a song jokingly having a go at the then new Premier Jeff Kennett.

The joke was entirely based around the duo mentioning every problem ailing soicety and then saying 'Bloody Jeff'

Ha Ha

They fit in well on Triple M's The Cage. They are woeful and they are on a woeful program

I think there funny. A bit stupid but funny.

I saw them live when they played at the Adelaide Fringe. I enjoyed the show. It might not have been rolling-in-the-aisle-crying-with-laughter stuff, but it was entertaining enough. I'd go to see them again - if only to see them playing music on whistle-pops

Yes. But it came out when he won his second term in office not first.

I first saw the scared weird little guys back in the late 80s at the Laast Laugh in Collingwood (now defunct and merged in with Comedy Club, Carlton). I think they're pretty lame and will occassionally come out with something half decent but not much.

Not overly funny and they have those annoying nasally voices.

 

[CatsGirl]

They have cool hats though

My Aunty was telling me they came and played at their work Christmas Party a couple of years ago and she thought they were funny as. That was when I started looking out for some of their work... saw them on a few comedy shows on the tv, really want to go see them play live one day.

Are they the mob who sing 'Volvo Man'?

Yeah, reasonably funny. Not over the top laugh a minute though.
