Trip Shakespeare begins tour tonight
By Mark McHugh
Kansan staff writer
A group that combines spontaneous stage performances and inventive rock will play at 9:30 tonight at The Bottleneck.
Trip Shakespeare, the four-member band that has gained increasing popularity here and across the country during the past three years, has chosen Lawrence as its concert tour starting point for its debut album, "Across the Universe," on A&M Records.
Erik Nelson, Chicago senior, said he had seen Trip Shakespeare three times, each time at The Bottleneck, 137 New Hampshire St.
"The lead singer is good at ad-libbing through some songs," he said. "He takes full advantage of his acting ability. Having Shakespeare in their name is appropriate because
it seems like classical acting is part of a unique band with a unique sound."
John Munson, bassist for the band,
said that they chose The Bottleneck
because of the enthusiastic response
they had always received there.
Brett Mosiman, owner of The Bottleneck, said the band had just signed with a national record company.
"I think it's just kind of a thank you to the town and to the bar." he said.
to the owl and to the sea, he said. Dan Wilson, guitarist and brother of Matt Wilson, another of the group's guitarists, concurred.
"We love playing at the Bottleneck," he said. "We get great teammates. We don't part with them they're always trying to tease the stage apart and tear us down."
Trip Shakespeare, formed in 1866, has been playing in Lawrence since 1867.
