The Monster (a.k.a Zachary Storey)—well known around Ann Arbor for playing his violin on the streets while wearing a werewolf mask, and occasionally howling—kicked off the tour Thursday with a date at The Last Word in Ann Arbor. His tour will take him to venues in Indiana, Tennessee, Virginia and North Carolina.

He's also recording an album, and an update on his Facebook page earlier this month says it's "almost finished."
