While most Americans are too busy trying to refinance their souls or Googling “Is the world ending or am I just dehydrated?” Cliff is out here using stand-up comedy like it’s a church bulletin soaked in gasoline and lit with purpose. \nHe’s not “just a comedian.” He’s a southern-fried truth grenade with a mic. A Carolina exorcist calling the demons out by name—racism\, misogyny\, theocracy\, white supremacy\, Hobby Lobby coupons—and dropping punchlines with lethal precision”. – Closer to The Edge  \n\nCliff Cash hit his first open mic in 2011 at the age of 31. He didn’t miss a Thursday open mic after that for about a year. Within 2 years Cliff won Port City’s Top Comic\, Comedy Central’s UpNext Regionals\, Comedy Zone’s Almost Famous and landed himself on Sirius XM. In the years that followed\, Cash racked up an impressive list of comedy credits and life scars. The highs and lows ranged from a divorce to a number one comedy album\, from the death of his father to a Dry Bar Comedy special.  \n\nDespite accolades like being a finalist for Standup NBC\, having two albums reach number one\, being on Laughs TV\, Rooftop Comedy and more\, Cliff was toiling away in the shadows of obscurity reluctant to take the traditional path of moving to New York or Los Angeles. Cash focused instead on honing his craft and building connections nationwide performing in nearly every state in the lower 48\, touring for months at a time\, living in a station wagon\, camping\, hiking and exploring between gigs. Many years he slept more nights under the stars than under a roof. He saw 45 of the nations 62 national parks and stumbled upon the passion of nature photography that he now sells as merch at his shows. Cliff lived in his old sprinter van for months at a time all over the U.S. and México.  \n\nFinally Cliff gave in to the pressure of the social media path. He decided that 2025 would be the year he finally put his energy into his long neglected online presence. In less than 6 months\, he’s grown his YouTube following from 280 subscribers to over 300\,000 and the other apps have exploded in the same way. His first *real* comedy special THE LONG ROAD debuted to high praise from fans around the world\, reached #1 on the iTunes comedy chart and has been viewed nearly 50 million times across clips and platforms. It is now available on apple\, Amazon\, tubi\, Roku and more. \n\n\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n	\n								\n									\n					\n								\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant\, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.

But\, whatever expectations they’d first conjured of a typical tour stop melted away as they\, along with millions of other Americans\, watched in horror as ICE terrorized this great city. \n \nInstead of dropping the date altogether\, local friends encouraged them\, “the time for music is now.” And so they reconfigured and planned a night of rest and recuperation for the wonderful people of Minneapolis.\n \nJesse had heard from friends on the ground about MONARCA-MN\, equipping observers to defend free speech\, peaceful protest and due process\, and needing donations. “I wonder about actually making it a fundraiser from people who DON’T live in Minneapolis\,” David said\, “for them to donate\, rather than asking the people there in the middle of the front lines to do it.” \n \nWe don’t want money to be a barrier for anyone who wants to attend. If you’re not able to contribute to the MONARCA fundraiser\, please feel free to use the promo code MONARCAMN for one of the limited number of respite tickets we’re reserving for folks who need an evening of rest and community. \n \nAnyone can donate at the door if they’re so moved. The good folks at Wrecktangle are donating pizza to feed anyone there who’s hungry. “We’d especially love for our friends\, family and fans outside of Minnesota to help us offer this show to the people of Minneapolis\, to those fighting for freedom and justice for all of us\,” Jesse said. “After we make sure the staff at Hook & Ladder get paid and cover their costs\, we’re going to donate all proceeds from this show to MONARCA and their work with immigrants and protesters.” https://monarcamn.org/

Using the music of The Ventures\, The Shadows\, Link Wray and Dick Dale as a jumping off point\, the band has taken their unique\, high energy brand of instrumental rock & roll around the world. \n \nWearing their trademark Lucha Libre Mexican wrestling masks\, Los Straitjackets have also served as the backing band for Nick Lowe since 2016. Their latest release\, Somos Los Straitjackets demonstrates why Los Straitjackets have reigned as the kings of modern instrumental rock for over thirty years with shimmering tremolo\, relentless drum grooves\, and hooks so catchy they don’t need lyrics to get stuck in your head.\n \nDeke Dickerson is a West Coast musician\, singer\, and author specializing in vintage roots music\, including rockabilly\, honky-tonk\, blues\, and garage rock. He was named Ameripolitan Musician of the Year. \n \nEqual parts sincere archivist and irreverent innovator\, Dickerson imbues his recordings with considerable production sense\, droll humor\, and doubleneck-guitar know-how to spare. He’s a skilled singer-songwriter with an impressive knack for recasting old tunes. Moreover\, after honing his skill with a variety of bands\, he has emerged as one of his genre’s finest interpreters. \n

Known for mixing mirth with the macabre\, his music is a vast collection of fun songs about frightful topics. Perhaps that is why he has become such a fan favorite around Halloween\, a time of year where his sizable audience grows substantially and his dark ditties appear on everyone’s Halloween playlists. Walk through a Spirit Halloween and you’re bound to hear a few of his songs\, like Brains! Or Land of the Dead from the Cartoon Network show The Grim Adventures of Billy And Mandy.\n \nMany know him for his songs from the viral animated videos of Daria Cohen’s Vampairseries (The Night\, Land of the Dead\, Zombie Prostitute\, Stuck with You\, Raised by Bats and Chupando) that have a combined 80 million views on Youtube. That IP is presently being developed into an animated series with Aurelio Voltaire as executive producer as well as voicing the main character of Duke.\n\n \n\nOver his thirty year career\, Aurelio Voltaire has released 14 full-length studio albums. \n \nHis latest release is a Summerween album of spooky surf\, ska\, and rockabilly songs called Summerween Surf. It features collaborations with spooky surf legends Los Straitjackets\, Messer Chups\, Satan’s Pilgrims\, Gothic horror punks Calabrese and more!\n \nWhen not touring or recording\, Aurelio Voltaire can be seen in his informative and hilarious Youtube series\, Gothic Homemaking. Like a young Vincent Price taking over for Martha Stewart\, he demonstrates how to turn a boring home into a Gothic lair with the help of his desiccated co-host\, Orville Deadenbacher and a bunch of other recurring monster characters.\n \nThe New York Times did a feature on Aurelio Voltaire and the Gothic Homemaking show calling him\, “The Martha Stewart of Macabre Homemakers” and “a lifestyle guru to people who embrace spookiness in all seasons.” The popularity of the show also lead to a book deal with Quarto Books/Epic Ink producing Aurelio Voltaire’s book\, Gothic Life- The Essential Guide to Macabre Style.\nThe Gothic Homemaking show can be seen at: https://www.youtube.com/thelairofvoltaire\n \nAurelio Voltaire has also just completed his first horror feature film\, The Demonatrix. In his directorial debut in which Voltaire also stars\, a priest comes to the aid of a dominatrix when she accidentally summons an incubus demon. The film stars Hannah Fireman (V/H/S\, Creepshow)\, Doug Bradley (Hellraiser) and Larry Fessenden (Jacob’s Wife\, Brooklyn 45). The incubus demon is played by Skinny Puppy frontman\, Nivek Ogre (Repo! the Genetic Opera\, The Devil’s Carnival) in a demon make up effects suit made by Norman Cabrera who worked on DelToro’s Hellboy\, Ghostbusters Afterlife\, Star Trek Beyond and Cabinet of Curiosities. The film will had its US premier in New York City on December of 2025 and is now on tour around the world via film festivals and horror conventions.—The Swongos are an instrumental Surf Band from the St. Croix River Valley on the Minnesota/Wisconsin border. Their music goes from soft\, sweet\, and dreamy to wacky\, wild and psychedelic.  In addition to Surf Music\, they have many styles of music such as Spy\, Exotica\, and Psychedelic Rock sprinkled in their sound.  The Swongos are influenced by traditional surf music like Dick Dale and the Ventures but also groups such as the Pixies\, Frank Zappa\, and Los Cubanos Postizos. \nThe Swongos have played shows with Messer Chups\, The Surfaris\, Eddie Angel (Los Straightjackets)\, Deke Dickerson\, Surfer Joe\, Tony Andreason (The Trashmen)\, The Phantom Surfers\, Los Bitchos\,  Los Yesterdays\, The Intoxicators\, The Volcanos\, Intoxicats\, Surf Zombies\, 13 Tikis\, Trailer Trash\, Black Widows\, Turn Turn Turn\, Gully Boys\, and many more.\n\n\n \n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n \n\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n	\n								\n									\n					\n								\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant\, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.

SUMMARY:Flatfoot 56 /The Killigans
DESCRIPTION:EVENT DETAILS \n\n		RSVP ON FACEBOOK\n	\n\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\nThe Hook and Ladder Theater \n\nDoors 8:00pm :: Music 8:30pm :: 21+\n$23 ADV (Box Office) / $26 ADV (Online) / $30 DOOR\n\n\nBOX-OFFICE Tickets Are Available in The Zen Arcade During Hours of Operation.For More Information visit www.ZenArcadeTHC.comNO REFUNDS \n\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n EVENT DESCRIPTION \n\nFlatfoot 56 /The Killigans with guest Toilet Rats\nPlaying a positive-natured brand of hardcore-tinged Celtic punk\, Flatfoot 56 has been unleashing itself upon America and the rest of the world for over 20 years now. Forming in 2000\, the Chicago natives achieved nationwide attention with their first two label-backed records\, 2006’s Knuckles Up and 2007’s Jungle of the Midwest Sea. These releases built on a heavy dose of previously established regional notoriety\, helping the band gain steam early on.\n \n\nThe Killigans are a seven piece “folk-punk” band from Lincoln\, NE. The Killigans “sound” combines the diverse musicals tastes of the bands members; fusing Punk Rock\, Folk\, Country and Western\, Celtic\, European folk\, Americana\, and other types of music into an upbeat\, foot-stomping\, beer-raising party. Lyrically\, the songs range from classic storytelling to rebel songs to ballads to middle class anthems. The Killigans are a band who thrive on live performance and crowd interaction. Core members include Brad Hoffman and the Nebesniak brothers. \nFounded in the cold-ass Minnesota winter of 2017\, Loss Leader is the new project from three working-class dudes from Minneapolis\, MN; Tim Schumann (guitar/vocals)\, Andy Slater (drums)\, and Brandon Stein (bass). With deep roots in the Minneapolis and broader Midwest punk and indie scenes (former The Damn Choir\, Mpls Henrys\, Mad Dogs of Glory\, current The Jeffertons) Loss Leaders’ brand of earnest\, hard charging\, melodic midwest punk has earned them a dedicated and steadily growing fan base in Minneapolis and the region.  \nToilet Rats is a one-person punk experiment created by the elusive Tommy Ratz\, a sewer-dwelling\, VHS-fed character whose warped worldview feels like flipping TV channels in 1983. Drawing inspiration from discarded cassette tapes\, the music collides synth pop\, thrash metal\, and spaghetti western soundtracks into something chaotic and unhinged. Behind the myth is Thomas Rehbein\, a longtime Minneapolis musician who’s played in numerous local bands and produced recordings for artists including members of Motion City Soundtrack. \n\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n	\n								\n									\n					\n								\n\n	\n	\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant\, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
