Ann Arbor day

Ten years ago, the swing state tour arrives in Ann Arbor, with nearly an entirely new lineup–Doug McCombs is the only holdover from our previous show.  Tonight’s cast includes Damon & Naomi, ex-Slumber Party members Gretchen Gonzalez and Leigh Sabo, the absurd nightclub comedy of Eugene Mirman, and an appearance from Dave “Tiny Hands” Gordon.  Not the most eventful day in our history, so instead let’s salute some of the greats no longer with us on their birthday.
