Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, and Harry Shearer go acoustic, tour, lose hairpieces
Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, and Harry Shearer, the longtime collaborators known for This Is Spinal Tap, A Mighty Wind and other fine films are hitting the road for a series of shows billed as "Unwigged & Unplugged: An Evening With Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, and Harry Shearer." The tour will focus on music, particularly music from Spinal Tap and Wind. From the press release:
UNWIGGED & UNPLUGGED is not about funny costumes and characters, but rather three long time friends and collaborators who make each laugh and love nothing better than to find some excuse to get together and play music. The trio commented, “With this being the 25th Anniversary of the film This is Spinal Tap, we thought this would be a fun and at the same time, a little challenging, as we have never performed as ourselves. Think of the evening as three old friends jamming in your living room. As opposed to OUR living rooms; we won’t be home.”
The tour will hit 30 cities over six weeks. Want dates? The Unwigged site has them here.
