Demetri Martin on Tour with Will Ferrell

Demetri Martin is heading out on the road for a comedy tour with Will Ferrell and two other comics who, like Martin, are said to be among the best young comedic talents. Martin, the funny young comedian who gained attention as a contributor to Jon Stewart's "Daily Show," will be on the tour with Ferrell and with Zach Galifianakis and Nick Swardson.

Called "Will Ferrell's Funny or Die Tour," the four-headed comedy monster is barnstorming through colleges around the country, with the exception of New York, where the show is playing at the stately Radio City Music Hall (be prepared for plenty of Rockettes jokes). Hmmm, couldn't Ferrell and company find a college in New York that could or would host them? Columbia? NYU? Baruch? Hunter? CCNY?

Well, maybe they can add a college show in New York, because the Radio City show is already sold out. But if you're elsewhere in the U.S. you can probably get tickets to see Will Ferrell, Demetri Martin, and the gang.

If the term "funny or die" rings a bell, that's because it's the name of a Web site that Ferrell is involved in that hosts funny videos (funnyordie.com). It's the site that hosted the video "the Landlord," which features Ferrell being dressed down by a potty-mouthed toddler who is, you guessed it, his landlord.
