Michael Glatzmaier got his first name from Michael Jordan. While his parents named him after the greatest basketball player of all time, this Michael he says he does not have an athletic bone in his body.
Instead, he is a musician and comedian who specializes in improv. He plays the guitar, and some of his act includes singing songs about topics suggested by the audience.
He will bring that show to Bourbon Alley in the Butte Depot on Wednesday, Oct. 22. Tickets for the show are just $15 in advance and $20 at the door. The show starts at 7:30 p.m. (Click here to buy tickets.)
Michael is a comedian based in Spokane, where he grew up the youngest of five boys. He describes himself as not being the brightest tool in the shed.
He will be filming his show in Butte as part of a documentary following a year and half of his tour around the United States. The movie is expected to be released in 2027.
