9/9 David Liebe Hart@adventureswithdavid

Known for his roles on Tim & Eric Awesome Show Great Job! and other Adult Swim series, David Liebe Hart is an outsider musician, actor, puppeteer, UFOlogist, and train buff. David’s vast and eclectic catalog includes songs about aliens, food, trains, and failed relationships, yielding such cult hits as “Salame,” “Father & Son” and “Puberty.” Live shows provide an intimate, raw, and unpredictable experience.  Funny, engaging or confusing, each David Liebe Hart show is one-of-a-kind and always memorable.

With Jonah “Th’ Mole” Mociun as gadget-wielding backing musician, Liebe Hart’s performance includes songs, puppetry, storytelling and surprises.

Plus opening art-rock/punk sets by Perennial & radical joy

The man himself, W***y. IYKYK.

(If you don’t know) Willie Whitfield was the head bartender at the original Drake bar in the Perry Hotel on Amity St. Forever immortalized as an Amherst legend via this simple yet enduring graffiti commemorating the local watering hole’s closing.
