Comedian Jim Breuer must have one weird existence thanks to the foothold he’s gained in popular culture. He had a short but memorable run on “Saturday Night Live,” where he left his mark with characters such as the chemically engineered MTV show host Goat Boy and a completely over the top Joe Pesci; he gave us a spot-on portrayal of a pothead in Dave Chappelle’s cult-comedy Half Baked; and in his stand-up routine, he has the funniest story about accidentally phoning in a bomb threat to a Sears department store. He must have fans constantly coming up to him braying like idiots, asking if he’d like some Funyuns and proclaiming “Long live paint!” in a Middle Eastern accent. He’s sure to bring plenty of interesting stories and voices with him when he steps out onstage at the House of Blues (2200 N. Lamar St.) at 7 p.m. Friday. Tickets are $30 to $37.25 per person at livenation.com.

Fri., Feb. 27, 7 p.m., 2015
