Village Idiots - Kevin

Once upon a time there were three very different little boys who grew up to be three very different men with three things in common: they're funny, they're handsome, and they work for me. My name is Charlie...ok so Charlie's Angels we're not. The members of The Village Idiots™ have been entertaining audiences around the world for years separately, and have now joined their comedic and musical powers to fight against the evil forces of boredom! With their unique blend of music, harmony, and comedic brilliance, The Village Idiots™ are certain to have you laughing so hard, you'll do something involuntary and messy! They're hystericalicious!

I'm catching their 3PM set at the White Hart every weekend (partly because it precedes the O'Danny Girls set), and boy are they good. Incredible harmonies and some good writing. I love their parodies of American Band and Fat Bottomed Girls (which I swear I'll record and post, once I a) get extra camcorder batteries and b) manage to keep myself from singing harmony during the chorus).  To give you some idea of how good they are, I absolutely can't stand the song Whiskey In The Jar, and theirs is the first non-parody version of the song I actually like. I'm hoping they get to perform their Queen parody at Pub Sing before they leave in two more weeks.

If you're on FaceBook, here's a good example of both what the Village Idiots do and what Maryland fans do when they see a great new act.
