Stephen Colbert challenges the Decemberists to Rock-Off #2

Stephen Colbert challenges the Decemberists to Rock-Off #2

This time, it’s personal.

The first time that The Decemberists appeared on Comedy Central’s Colbert Report, show anchorman and master of the deadpan Stephen Colbert had challenged guitarist Chris Funk to a “ShredDown.” In an upset, Colbert thoroughly trounced Funk after pulling a secret weapon: guitarist Peter Frampton.

And now, on April 27, the two will face off once again, man-to-men (and woman), leaving no grudge unsettled in their wake. Yes, ladies and gentleman, this will truly be a battle for the ages. Only one party will be left standing.

Who will triumph? Only time will tell, but a repeat Colbert victory smacks of truthiness, does it not?
