John Darnielle is a funny guy. Seriously! Read this if you don't believe me. Or go see the Mountain Goats play at "The Daily Show With Jon Stewart"'s "TEN F#@KING YEARS (THE CONCERT)", to which they were recently added.

As previously reported, Superchunk, Clem Snide, the Upper Crust, several "Daily Show" staffers, and Stewart himself (via video) will all celebrate the fake news show's 10th anniversary with an evening of songs and hijinks at NYC's Irving Plaza on November 16.

It's a benefit for 826NYC, and all concertgoers will receive a limited edition program featuring work by all of "The Daily Show"'s writers, as well as a cover by Tony Millionaire.

If you can't make it to that shindig, the Mountain Goats are on tour now.
