Brian Unger, Joe Wagner, Zach Galifianakis

From an inauspicious beginning performing comedy routines in the back of a burger joint in New York, unorthodox stand-up star Zach Galifianakis has made a splash on the scene with his inimitable brand...( read more  read more... ) of humor. In this live show filmed at San Francisco's Purple Onion nightclub, the versatile funnyman (whose credits include "Late World with Zach," Out Cold, Heartbreakers and The Comedians of Comedy) serves up a healthy dose of his signature wit.

    A hilarious unconventional stand-up that shows not all comedians are as shitty as Dane Cook and Carlos Mencia.

    Gotta love this N.C. native. A man and his piano have never been so funny.
