Seasick: Tales & Songs of Ships & Islands

We've got a great lineup of in-stores for you this weekend at saki, starting with Laura Gibson on Friday, but if you need to kickoff your pre-weekend right, you should go check out this Sarah Vowell & Jon Langford double bill at Second City's UP Comedy Club!

SEASICK: TALES AND SONGS OF SHIPS AND ISLANDS WITH JON LANGFORD AND SARAH VOWELL will pair the New York Times bestselling author's stories with the music of Jon Langford. Sarah Vowell's writing is often heavy on history (and comedy), ranging from stories on the locations of presidential assassinations to the plight of the early North American pilgrims. Jon Langford is pretty much living history himself, as one of the founding members of the legendary punk band, The Mekons, and now as a staple in the Chicago music scene.

This promises to be a very unique night of music, comedy, history, and all-out nerd-dom that you really should NOT miss. To make the deal even sweeter, every ticket comes with a copy of Sarah Vowell's new book Unfamiliar Fishes! For a mere $20, you can't beat that!

SEASICK: TALES AND SONGS OF SHIPS AND ISLANDS WITH JON LANGFORD AND SARAH VOWELL is this Thursday night at UP Comedy Club! The show starts at 9:30!
