Jon Wurster: Musician, Comedian, Renaissance Man

Friend-of-Splitsider Joe Berkowitz has a great piece in the latest Village Voice on musicians who crossover into comedy. Specifically, he focuses on Jon Wurster, who drums for Superchunk and The Mountain Goats while also teaming up with Tom Sharpling on The Best Show on WFMU. Essentially, jerks like Wurster are not content being talented and successful in one field, so they show off and succeed in another as well. Save some for the rest of us, ya dicks.

    No one could pull off (as tragicomic) a red wig as Jon Wurster.
