Neal Page (Steve Martin) is an advertising executive who just wants to fly home to Chicago to spend Thanksgiving with his family. But all he gets is misery in the form of Del Griffith (John Candy) — a loud-mouthed, but nevertheless lovable salesman, who leads Neal on a cross-country wild goose chase that keeps Neal just out of arm’s reach of tasting his turkey. As a bonus, sitting in a darkened theater with your family will offer a welcome respite from arguing about politics.

Come early for a pre-movie set of toe-tapping, two-tone tunes from Meatraffle SKA!

Meatraffle SKA’s sets are a tasty mix of first-wave Ska, Rock Steady, Afrobeat and a few little treats tossed in for good measure! Featuring the vocals and guitar work of Guy Messenger and Reid Rejsa, balanced with some of the finest horns in the Twin Cities. Be ready to dance!    

Featuring:

Guy Messenger (guitar, vocals) 
Greg Sullivan (sax, vocals) 
Reid Rejsa (guitar) 
Joel Chechik (bass) 
Leighton Tuenge (Trumpet) 
John Gwinn (drums) 
Tony Beaderstadt (Trombone)
