That little guy from the Sun has plans to land in the L.A. area on the national tour of his all-new, out-of-this-world, multimedia show! Gustafer Yellowgold’s Infinity Sock will come to McCabe’s Guitar Shop, 3101 Pico Blvd., Santa Monica, CA on Sunday, May 15, at 11:00 a.m.

Groovy Gustafer Yellowgold is a small, yellow, cone-headed fellow, who came to Earth from the Sun and has a knack for finding himself neck-deep in absurd situations as he explores his new life in the Minnesota woods. Illustrator/songwriter/musician Morgan Taylor developed the “musical moving book” Gustafer Yellowgold experience as equal parts pop rock concert and animated storybook.

Gustafer Yellowgold’s Infinity Sock is the first Gustafer Yellowgold show to have a storyline, which follows our hero as he embarks upon an hilarious, mind-bending musical journey in search of the toe-end of the longest sock in the universe. Gustafer learns much along the way, as he encounters a Band of Bees performing at their late night hangout in the chime-and-timpani drama of ”Beehive,” joins in the Broadway romp “Wisconsin Poncho” (set in an all-cheese clothing store), and comes upon a pterodactyl’s unusually calm cat in the Fleetwood Mac lushness of “Cheddar,” all the while learning that everyone has a use for The Sock. The Bacharach-esque “Sock Of Ages” brings the show to an uplifting close, providing Gustafer and friends with a one-of-a-kind look at the interconnectivity among all life on Earth.
