Arlo Guthrie, Abe Guthrie, Sarah Lee Guthrie

Thanksgiving isn’t known for spawning songs, but Arlo Guthrie is a major exception. The folk scion’s sprawling opus “Alice’s Restaurant Massacree” still enjoys considerable airplay each November, telling the story of how a littering citation impacted his draft status during the Vietnam War era. This year marks the fiftieth anniversary of the Alice’s Restaurant album, and Guthrie is celebrating by having his children, Sarah Lee and Abe, join him for the show as part of his “Re:Generation” tour.

press release: The Wisconsin Union Theater will welcome Arlo Guthrie: The Re:Generation Tour to Shannon Hall on Thursday, October 5, 2017, at 8:00 pm. Daughter Sarah Lee and son Abe tour with Arlo.
