Live Halloween performance of "A Prairie Home Companion"

Seen on Halloween, 2005, just weeks after wrapping the Robert Altman film; "Prarie Home Companion", this live show was enjoyed after taking a long train ride from the west coast to cold, humid Saint Paul, Minnesota, where Garrison Keillor has performed his classic live radio show at the Fitzgerald theater since 1974.

This particular night they were doing a sketch where the great Sue Scott was rebelling against GK for not using her enough. Fun to see it live on stage after hearing it on the radio for so long. They have a blast doing it and this show is a genuine holdover from the real live radio days in the 1930's-50's in this country.

Thank god for garrison Keillor, an actual bonifide Renaissance man in our time.

If there's a movie, then let's root for the "Year 9595." It's over.

when garrison keillor sings,,stevedores and longshoremen seek refuge in a Ralph Lauren Boutique where they go nutz buying ice cream pastel polo knits with kahki pants, braided belts, penny loafers and argyl socks then skip over to starbucks for triple mochamancow moocow skim latte whipped capocinos with cinamon skones and get moony over brian boitanos triple salkow and dorothy hamils double axel camel.
