Andy Samberg and the folks of The Lonely Island are going to be doing an autograph signing session tonight at the Newbury Comics in Faneuil Hall at 7pm. You can thank Bloggery reader Sarah for the tip. I haven't listened to a comic album since my middle school days listening to old school Adam Sandler. The new Lonely Island cd should be pretty hilarious.

Samberg hopes to have a similar effect on people with this month's release of "Incredibad," a new CD/DVD he released with his writing partners Jorma Taccone and Akiva Schaffer, childhood friends collectively known as the Lonely Island. While the Lonely Island may not be a household name, the clips the group has produced for "Saturday Night Live" have become viral sensations, like " ... in my Pants" and " ... in a Box," which featured a memorable appearance by Justin Timberlake.

The new CD/DVD features their greatest hits as well as new collaborations with top stars like Jack Black, Norah Jones, and Julian Casablancas of the Strokes.

I love the SNL digital shorts. The one with Natalie Portman rapping, I'm on a Boat, Lazy Sunday. I have half a mind to go on hulu right now and rewatch all of them.
