The Moon: 45th Show

This Tuesday, for the first time, The Moon gets a little weird.


Looking to make a change, maybe shake things up in your life? But you're worried that Dr. Jonathan Zizmor hasn't appeared in a live ad since the mid-90's and may even have existed? Take a walk on the weird side and come on down to The Moon this Tuesday, November 2 at 8PM. The show is FREE and includes these fantastic entertainers:
  • Greg Johnson (hilarious standup comedian, we're glad to finally have him)
  • Rue Brutalia (the great sketch duo returns, looks great in menswear)
  • Pass Kontrol (Bushwich rock-opera dynamos head to the acoustic west)
  • Zac Palladino (an old friend and an old soul)
  • And a special secret surprise guest!
And your favorite Moonkids: Tim Skinner, Steph Fagan, Kenny Pickett, Bryan Condon, and Jordan Clifford!

And your hosts, Nat Towsen and Bob Walles!

We hope to see you this Tuesday. Doors open at 8, show starts at 8:30. We're going to have a great time, so we hope you're there to see it and have some of it too.

A wonderful guest will be joining us tomorrow: Elna Baker!

We are very happy to announce that a one Ms. Elna Baker will be joining us tomorrow evening. Elna is a fantastic storyteller, whose stories you may have heard on the popular programs This American Life, The Moth, and Risk! She is also the author of the recently published memoir The New York Regional Mormon Singles Halloween Dance.

When I first googled Elna, I somehow got a picture of Richard Belzer.

We hope you can make it out to see her, and the rest of our fabulous lineup! Scroll down for info about the show. Bring your faces!
