The Both at Fine Line Music Café (May 10, 2014)

We’ve seen both Aimee Mann and Ted Leo separately, but the two were in a band called The Both, which we saw in May 2014 and described it as a 30% improv comedy show: “Seeing The Both at the Fine Line Music Café in Minneapolis was like 70% music and 30% improv comedy. If you are not caught up, The Both is the latest musical project from Aimee Mann and Ted Leo, from ‘Til Tuesday and Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, respectively.”
