CNN’s Chris Cuomo interviewed cross-examined Congressman Chris Collins over Donald Trump’s outrageous and unconscionable attacks on a judge overseeing one of the Trump University fraud cases.

With his band the Gilded Grit, Pace has released a several records including 2014’s The Rapture. On this tour, it’s safe to expect that the band will be trying out some new material, as they’ve got a record scheduled to come out in 2017. Sam Pace and the Gilded Grit come to Nietzsche’s on Thursday, June 16.
This show has been postponed by the artist.
