The Moth: Family<\/h3>\n

Monday, Dec. 9, High Noon Saloon (info<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n

With Thanksgiving now in the collective rearview, there\u2019s no doubt a whole bunch of new family anecdotes out there just waiting to be shared. This StorySLAM will focus on familial relations \u2014 both the ones we\u2019re born into and the ones we choose. It is sure to be a hilarious, infuriating, and heartwarming night of stories. As always, acclaimed local comedian and raconteur Esteban Touma<\/strong> will host.<\/span>\n

Raine Stern<\/h3>\n

Tuesday, Dec. 10, High Noon Saloon (info<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n

Raine Stern is from Madison and has played dozens of shows around the area this year, including a prime gig at Summerfest. She seems poised to breakthrough beyond Wisconsin soon, so now would be a good chance to see her before she blows up. The 21-year-old guitarist isn\u2019t unlike Prince in the way she navigates thrilling guitar runs with showstopper vocals. This show was meant to serve as a release party for Stern\u2019s new EP, but she pushed back<\/a> the release date to tweak it to \u201cwhat (fans) deserve to hear.\u201d<\/p>\n
