Gilligan Stump! that infamously angry comedic
singer-songwriter has decided to throw his hat in the ring and run for
president of these United States. This is a bold effort for Gilligan,
as he is hairless and it is cold and he will sorely miss that hat. His
loveable sidekick Tha Perfesser… has agreed to be Vice President
if Gilligan gets elected. Gil and Tha Per are running on the party party
ticket. For a full list of their issues visit www.brokenarmproductions.org,
or just call Gil’s therapist. Says Gil, “If you feel, as many
Americans do, that you are trapped between a soft spot and a dumb place,
vote Stump!” |
| Originally from Texas (no relation) Gilligan Stump! rose to the lowest level of fame in the late nineties as one half of the comic rock act, ‘Gilligan Stump! and Tha Perfesser…’. He plays a mean guitar and belts out hilarious lyrics while his mild mannered mute sidekick, Tha Perfesser… accompanies him in elegantly absurd theatrical manners. They are joined by their sloppy drunk roadie John Wilkes (their man in the booth) who continues to screw up the tech side of things, making for one side splitting, wacky-weird evening that makes Penn and Teller look like a couple of magicians and Tenacious D look like the Backstreet Boys. |

what the press has to say... “Offering up one of the smartest, funniest shows
in New York.” “As weird as a UFO sighting and as high-spirited as a ten-gallon hat and a pair of hitkickers.” TimeOut NY “Reaffirms the blurry line between the ingenious
and the insane.” “Leon Redbone meets Primus meets Kids-in-the-Hall
meets Son of Sam.” |
