Solid Gold take over U Otter Stop Inn

​En route between the studio where this week's cover photo was taken and downtown Minneapolis, where we had planned to wrap up the shoot, Solid Gold's Shon Troth spotted the U Otter Stop Inn out the car window.

"Pull over! They have karaoke!"

We couldn't help but comply. The following is a series of photos from their outrageous late afternoon karaoke pit stop and subsequent trip to downtown Minneapolis. Thanks to City Pages art director Nick Vlcek for being a great sport and shooting these photos from our afternoon with our favorite colonial pirates, Solid Gold.
