If the name of this show didn't tip you off, the Friends of the Bob & Tom Show Comedy Tour is comprised of frequently returning standup guests (as well as longtime personalities) on the Indianapolis-based syndicated radio program that you can hear on KBER 101.1 every weekday. Most of them are rising talents, and the two hosts constantly chuckle at their jokes throughout the morning. The tour itself constantly changes its lineup of headliners every week, so any given city might get a completely unique show. For Salt Lake City, we're getting an interesting bunch who have been staples of the show at various points. Costaki Economopoulos (pictured), a 22-year standup veteran, used to be a B&T regular with his weekly "Economonologue" spot. Drew Hastings has starred in several one-man shows, and is one of the few comedians to get a standing ovation on The Tonight Show. Finally, the show features Tim Cavanagh, a parody musician who has made hundreds of songs over his career for various programs and features, and is sure to sing a jingle or two for his part of the evening. The final participant in the show's hilarity is B&T's announcer for nearly 30 years, Chuck McGee, serving as host throughout the festivities. Depending on his mood, you'll either get fantastic jokes between sets or shameless promotion of the show and its merch—so come prepared. One dollar of your ticket purchase will benefit the American Red Cross. (Gavin Sheehan)
