Umphrey’s McGee returned their end of the year celebration to their hometown of Chicago and rang in 2016 with two nights at the Aragon Ballroom, following a night at the Riviera Theatre. According to social media, there was one fan in the room that seemed unexpected… Ethan Cutkosky (also known as “Carl” from the Showtime series Shameless) was at one of the UM shows, also hitting Reaction over the weekend. The source also says that Cutkosky has been to both GRiZ and Bassnectar shows as well. You can see from the backstage pass on his shirt that “Carl” likes to have fun.

Shameless is an American-remake of a British television series about a dysfunctional family learning to take care of themselves while the father spends his days drunk and untrustworthy. When he’s not playing the role of the young rebellious teenager, Cutkosky is clearly getting his fix of good live music. Rage on!
