Initially announced in November with more dates added in January, Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein have been bringing their funny/offensive IFC show Portlandia to live stages across the country over the past month. They started at the end of December with shows in Portland, Seattle and San Francisco (where Thao & Mirah joined them for a song). January's run started in LA, continued to Chicago (where guests included Jeff Tweedy's kids), and then hit NYC for two shows: 1/20 @ Music Hall of Williamsburg (pictures in this post) and 1/21 @ Bowery Ballroom (pictures HERE).
The Brooklyn show, pictured here, included special guests Adam Horovitz (aka Beastie Boy Ad-Rock) and Hugh Cornwell. The live band included Carrie's Wild Flag bandmate Rebecca Cole.
Wild Flag were all in the audience at the same venue just over a month earlier to see Eleanor Friendberger perform. Eleanor opened for Wild Flag on their October tour, and is joining Portlandia on their February run of dates that kick off 2/19 at the Trocadero in Philadelphia. All dates and more pictures from the Brooklyn Portlandia show, below...

What is the deal with these Portlandia shows? Is it a concert with originals? Covers? Standup/flight of the concords style?

Who is the tub on the tambourine? #EndFatRock
Armisen looks nerdy as usual.

4:02, I think it's just mutual masturbation.

I bet the annoying K. Hanna was there.

Armisen is never funny.

Armisen is pretty funny. His sketches are the most creative on SNL right now.

Is a total rip off of flight of the conchords!
Right from the opening song, to the Mayer, to the acting, and even the screen angle shots.
