about

A feature track for Jennifer, the lyrics center around the after-hours actors bar 7 Brothers in Hamtramck MI where she tended bar. This legendary dive bar was claimed by first-wave Planet Ant & Second City actors and improvisors like Keegan Micheal Key and Larry Campbell and many other household names.

A member herself of the Planet Ant Home Team of improvisors, she routinely acted with and served and the up-and-coming stars and the players that would become the local bedrock of the improv scene. The bar was literally bordered with headshots of the famous, the favored, and the forgotten, and wallpapered with the show posters that marked their existence (many of which Marc had designed and illustrated).

This song was loosely based on a conversation Marc and Jennifer had about an existential crisis after a shift.

lyrics

One day I thought I'd be a movie star
Impress them with my stunning parts
Can't imagine lovin' nothing more than this

But Thursday's waiters still perform
In Wednesday evening's uniform
Worried 'bout the way they used to fit

Oh I never though I'd find myself
I'd find myself so fucked up
Never though I'd find myself
I'd find myself so fucked up
Never though I'd find myself
I'd find myself I'd find myself I'd find myself like this

That's what happens when it rains
That's what happens when it rains
Wanna scream out loud when you're down and out
That's what happens when it rains

That's what happens when it rains
That's what happens when it rains
Wanna scream out loud when you're down and out
That's what happens when it

One day I thought I'll be a move star
My headshot hangs behind the bar
Can't imagine lovin' notihin' more than this

Seven nights at Seven Brothers
Lunatics hide undercover
Out back there's another one to twist

But I never though I'd find myself
I'd find myself so fucked up
Never though I'd find myself
I'd find myself so fucked up
Never though I'd find myself
I'd find myself I'd find myself I'd find myself like this

That's what happens when it rains
That's what happens when it rains
Wanna scream out loud when you're down and out
That's what happens when it rains

That's what happens when it rains
That's what happens when it rains
Wanna scream out loud when you're down and out
That's what happens when it

Hey!!!!!!

about

The Lincolns UK Detroit, Michigan

Hailed as “…arena rock through a Pignose amp..” The Lincolns UK draw on early British & US punk, Cheap Trick & AC/DC, and filter it through the awesome early Replacements/Minneapolis vibe, but still manage to sound distinctly “Detroit”.

The band is the brainchild of artist/actor/powercouple Marc & Jennifer Nischan, and filmmaker Mikey Brown, who met through Planet Ant Theatre.
