Canada’s Clown Princes of Comedy to perform in Spruce Grove on November 15 & 16.
Fans of the Arrogant Worms should hurry, hurry, hurry! The Worm’s concert at Horizon Stage on Friday, November 16th is already sold out! But, there are still good seats available for their show on Thursday, November 15th. Appearing in Spruce Grove for the fourth time in eight years, these fabulously funny guys will once again be making audience members roll in the aisles with laughter and mirth.
The Arrogant Worms have been providing tuneful and silly escapism all over North America, Australia and Europe since 1991. Recognized in 2003 as Touring Artists of the Year by the Canadian Arts Presenting Association, their biggest honour came in 2005 when they read in the New York Times that Carrie Fisher and Meg Ryan were singing along with their music while on a driving trip in Newfoundland. Arrogant Worms songs have been used in lesson plans across the country, published in an English textbook, and played aboard the space shuttle, Endeavour. The youth of Canada even voted them the most popular band on a national radio show. The band that came in second was AC/DC.
Arrogant Worms come in three sizes, Trevor Strong (small), Chris Patterson (medium) and Mike McCormick (large). Together they sing about everything from baby poo to politics. Their most recent CD, Beige, is full of crazy and fun tunes like Go To Sleep Little Leech, The Ballad of Edna and Ida, and Pressure Washer. And avid Worm’s fans will love to sing along to their classics, including the likes of Carrot Juice is Murder, Jesus Brother Bob, I Am Cow and Rocks and Trees. Are you familiar with the song Last Saskatchewan Pirate? Yes, that prairie favorite is an original tune by the Arrogant Worms!
So, even if you have never heard the Arrogant Worms before, if you like to chuckle, titter, chortle and guffaw, don’t miss their Up Close and Personal performance at Horizon Stage on Thursday, November 15th at 7:30 p.m. We guarantee that you will enjoy great music and gallons of giggles with these goofy, extremely gifted, comedy geniuses! Tickets are selling quickly so call the Horizon Stage Box Office at 962-8995 to order yours today!
“The Arrogant Worms have an off-the-wall humor you just can’t find anywhere else.”
