Elvis & The Imposters play Ann Arbor, MI, November 20, 2019

Post by Man out of Time »

The JustTrust tour reaches Michigan on November 20, when Elvis and The Imposters, with Briana Lee and Kitten Kuroi play the Michigan Theater in the beautiful town of Ann Arbor. Autumn, or "Fall" as our American cousins like to call it, may be the best time to visit Michigan for the colours of the trees.

This will be Elvis' eighth show in Ann Arbor and his fifth at the Michigan Theater. The first show he played at this venue (with The Imposters) was back in 2005, and the most recent in 2016. Wikipedia tells us that the Michigan Theater was originally a cinema, designed by Detroit-based architect Maurice Finkel and built in 1928, the main auditorium seats 1610 and features the theater's original 1927 Barton Theatre Pipe Organ, orchestra pit, stage, and elaborate architectural details. Elvis has a penchant for playing theatres that were formerly cinemas, perhaps a nod to his family history and his grandfather.

TIcket sales for this show look pretty good, with maybe 120 unsold seats, at of today (see below).

Unsold seats are show in blue, sold seats in grey. Available seats are priced $90, $80 and $70.

As this is as near as the tour gets to Motown (Detroit), expect any number of snippets from Motown tunes to appear in the set.

Who's going?

As a reminder, bordering Ann Arbor to the east is Ypsilanti (ip-sil-lan-tee), as in:
  • The women in Poughkeepsie
    Take their clothes off when they're tipsy
    But I hear in Ypsilanti
    They don't wear any panties
