Brothers Hines, 1983
Brothers Hines tonight! Come see some wry and adorable comedy! See us bald and mope before your VERY EYES! We perform at 11pm with the super-awesome Hot Sauce!
My brothers and my recreation of us in Superman underoos has made it on to the hallowed pages of neatorama.com, a site I just discovered when Jon Gabrus sent me this link.

[funnyordie 8212431415 nolink]Kevin and I made this video (thank you Cat for filming) and showed it at our Cagematch two weeks ago. Previously, our videos had been deliberately overly-cute montages of our childhood photos. This was more of a sketch and even though it went over well, it’s probably not as appealing as photos of Kevin at the age of 12 holding a model of a solar system in our kitchen.
Still, I was glad to do it. For Christmas, Kevin had received a DVD of the He-Man Christmas Special. Brilliantly, they include a montage of the morals that ended each He-Man episode. Watching just the morals — all stilted and weird — was hilarious! I really wanted [...]
The Brothers Hines are in Cagematch tonight, facing weekend powerhouse Reuben Williams! It’s gonna be fun. We have a new video which you will enjoy. For a couple of dudes in their 30s, we’re pretty adorable so there’s that. If you do come out, I ask only that you vote your conscience, but bear this in mind: I hereby promise that anyone who votes for us will be put on a Harold team tomorrow. So if we beat Reuben Williams 40 to 30, for example, fwand might have 48 members on it by end of day tomorrow.
Separately, I left my keys at home last night, and had to wake up my thousand-year-old landlady at [...]
Brothers Hines lost at Cagematch last night to Chubby Chase. But we had the pleasure of losing by not too much, and losing to hilarious friends of ours, so it was a good fun night all around. Mitch and Kaveri were there, and we even guilted Danger Dyna Moe into attending. We showed a film of our dad holding up pictures of us in high school, which went over much bigger than Kevin and I expected! Nice job, Dad.
Thank you to everyone who came out to watch us and to Charlie Todd for booking us! Kevin and I have been studying, watching and performing shows at the UCBT for something like thirty years, but you know what? [...]
“You know, 25 minutes is a LONG time,” Kevin said to me about 10 minutes before we started our set at Cagematch last Thursday — and he’s right! I had a nervous excitement that I haven’t felt in a long time. Our opponent C,C&C Improv Factory went first and had an explosive set — the audience was going nuts. But our set felt solid very early, the audience was responsive, and our deliberately manipulative montage of baby pictures was a hit. I didn’t know how excited I’d be until we actually won, but I was really excited. I’d say it was one of my top five favorite nights of improv ever, and I’ve been doing this since [...]
The Brothers Hines are in Cagematch tonight. Come on out. It’s an improv show 32 years in the making. Buckle up for some adorable self-deprecation TONIGHT!!!
