Jim White Trio with Jim White (Dirty Three), Guy Picciotto (Fugazi, Rites of Spring), Colleen Burke (We Ragazzi, Outrageous Cherry)
Jim White is an Australian percussionist, active since 1980 with an incredible array of artists and bands, best known as the drummer of Dirty Three. He currently also collaborates with Marisa Anderson, George Xylouris (as Xylouris White) and a number of others. In his music, this master drummer travels into expressionist landscapes of private meditation and shared dialogues with his musician collaborators.

HUGE thank you to Greg Baise for bringing this very special show to us.

We’ve been waiting for this. We opened last year at the tail end of the football season. We’re ready for you this year with all kinds of options.

Grab a table at our Ann Arbor restaurant before the game. We’re at 207 E Washington. We have tons of TVs to watch all of the early games before you head to the stadium. No ticket? See above message about TVs. Of course the game will be on. Reservations: https://bit.ly/4883xWd

Add Slows to your tailgate! Order online or contact our team. We’ll set you up with the perfect amount of smoky favorites and our signature sides. Pans of Slows Mac & Cheese make any tailgate better.

Join our food truck at Stadium Club 327. For the better part of a decade, we’ve posted up at 327 E Hoover before games. Free to enter and open to the public - the b**r garden is the closest bar to the stadium. Bonus - you can watch the Michigan band march into the stadium right in front of the tailgate.

Find us inside the Big House!! Our brand new stand is in section 26, near the NW corner of the stadium. We have the fuel you need to climb back down to your seats.

After the game - head to Mash! Disco Boutique returns for its monthly residency. No cover, 21+, and please tip the talented DJs.
