If I only catch very brief glimpses of them in a preview or trailer, I always get Rob Corddry and Paul Scheer mixed up.

Paul Scheer's a different height, different head shape and always distinguishable by his gappy grin, but I'm still not entirely certain Corddry and David Koechner are separate people.

How about Andy Schwartz (New York Rocker) and Andy Shernoff (New York rock guy)? I used to get them mixed up all the time.
― clemenza, Tuesday, 2 August 2011 00:39 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, them two too. Doesn't the latter guy, from the Dictators, misspell his name Adny? He was misspelling long before the internet, he was way ahead of his time.
― Scharlach Sometimes (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 2 August 2011 00:42 (thirteen years ago) link
My first search was "Adny Shernoff," just to double-check, and all I got back was "Andy." But I guess we're right.

Throw in Fernwood, too, bentelec.
Just checked the first three albums right off the shelf--Adny on every one. (Underscoring something the aforementioned Frank Kogan pointed out recently: it would have taken me two seconds to reach over to my left and check the albums, but I instinctively checked Google first.)
