Madison\'s favorite label-defying songwriter/producer/multi-instrumentalist/illustrator/adventurer/troubadour presents a very special evening to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the release of his Lifestyle! album, still shining bright as one of the most unique pop records in midwestern history. The Madison native, who now splits his time between New Orleans and Vermont, will return to town for one night only, to perform the sixteen song cycle in it\'s entirety before those gathered within the tall, vibrant walls of Mother Fool\'s. Opening act The Auroratones is Mr. Klipstein\'s current songwriting and record-producing outlet. Expect a one-of-a-kind evening of song and sound, ripe with delicious surprises.

*Bundle admission includes original Lifestyle! CD with new liner notes, plus commemorative poster, and a download code for the new alternate-version album of demos and other oddities... nearly three hours of recorded music in all!
