Two guys with the same name make up the comedy duo We're Matt Weir.

Expect the twosome to portray a barrage of zany characters during the course of their high-energy performance.

I went to see We're Matt Weir last night and I am 100% not lying when I say the Mayor Nutter was at the show - laughing. This place is seriously underground and yet majorly awesome.
