Variety has reported on what could likely be one of the biggest comedy tours ever in what has been dubbed “Will Ferrell’s Funny or Die Comedy Tour Presented by Semi-Pro.” The tour will be supporting Ferrell’s latest sports comedy (I think’s its time to move on to a new subject, Mr. Ferrell) Semi-Pro as well as Ferrell’s viral video site FunnyorDie.com. The best part about the tour though is the trio of openers which features 3 of todays finest in “alternative comedy” including Zach Galifianakis, Demetri Martin and Nick Swardson. Looks like Ferrell has some good taste in Stand Up.

According to Ferrell, “Not only will this tour make people laugh, but it’s going to change lives … I think.”
