Being Frank in Ogden

Comedian Frank Caliendo is coming to the Ogden Amphitheatre on Saturday, July 12 (a week from this Saturday), and the $20 general admission tickets will be only $10 from now until midnight of July 7.

If you watched the baseball playoffs on TBS last October, you know Frank. Every commerical break, there were ads for his TBS show, "Frank TV," where he impersonated celebrities such as the President, Charles Barkley, John Madden and Al Pacino. He is a master impressionist, and the series did so well that a second season will premiere on TBS right after, you guessed it, the baseball playoffs later this year. In an interview with The Salt Lake Tribune, he said, "I apologize in advance. You're going to see me 8 million more times."

Football fans will recognize Frank, too, from his appearances on FOX's football coverage Sunday mornings.

For tickets, call SmithsTix at 467-8499 or go to any SmithsTix outlet.

David Burger is the pop music/pop culture writer at The Salt Lake Tribune. He's been at several newspapers, including Scranton, Pennsylvania, the home of "The Office." Before that, he spent five years in the Coast Guard. There, on boring midnight watches on the bridge, he would try to keep himself awake and/or keep from throwing up by singing "Thunder Road" to himself while balancing a sextant on his nose. (He'd also look for drowning people, of course.) He also likes condiments, except when throwing up.
