 This post has updated flyer information concerning Gary Farmer’s roll into town next week. He’ll be on the University of Montana campus here in Missoula where there will be some special screenings of his films, including Dead Man and Powwow Highway. And according to a Facebook message, Farmer and his band will also be performing at the Top Hat on Friday night. So, do check out  the updated flyer in this post for more details.  As for his Troublemaker tour performances, you will have to check out his My Space page for the times of his shows in Missoula, Pablo and Polson.                                                                              

For several weeks, there’s been a buzz around the University of Montana campus about a three-day run next week of actor Gary Farmer activities on campus and at a local downtown bar, the Top Hat. More later, but for now, here’s all the details on a flyer just sent to me by, none other than, Adam Sings In the Timber. Sings is a member of the Indigenous Filmmakers Club on the UM campus here in Missoula. The Club is one of about four campus organizations sponsoring Farmer’s visit with students.

Come join the fun, entertainment, discussion and film viewing.
