Louie Anderson Northrop

Louie Anderson has a cult like following in Minnesota (since he is FROM here) so it is no wonder he puts on a show in the Twin Cities every year. I always thought his Minnesota show was actually on New Years Eve, but this year he is performing at the Northrop Auditorium on Saturday December 27th. He is putting on two shows – a 6pm and a 9pm show including meet and greet options. 92KQRS is promoting the Louie Anderson show so it is getting plenty of media and there aren’t many tickets left. I think the only other place to see Louie Anderson is in Las Vegas these days (which actually doesn’t sound too bad right now).

Anyway, Louie Anderson is a funny guy and he has great Midwest material that will put you a good mood for the New Year. It’s a holiday show worth going out in the snow and cold for!

The Killers Northrop Auditorium

One of my favorite bands, The Killers, are coming to the Northrop Auditorium on January 19th – WooHoo! I read somewhere that it was sold out, but I don’t think so and now I can’t find where I read that. Maybe I am losing my mind.

Anyway, The Killers new album, Day & Age is better than their last album (maybe their best yet) and I am excited that they are stopping by Minneapolis to promote it. Plus, the Northrop is the perfect spot – The Killers have a huge college kid fan base and they chose a date after winter break to insure the students are around. In fact, classes for Spring Semester start on Tuesday January 20th - you can bet there will be some tired kids at classes that day. Good thing the first day is just reviewing syllabi. LOL!

There are still great Killers Tickets available from local ticket brokers like Ticket King if you want to score seats up front. If you don’t have the funds, you could always ask for them as a gift!
