Lowdown: Your Oyster Fest Eve Out-and-About Options

Savvy Humboldters are conserving energy for a day full of gulping greasy bivalves at tomorrow’s much-anticipated Oyster Festival; You are forgiven if you lean low-key this evening. But, if you insist on testing thyself, there are some Friday night options to be attempted in your Lowdown listings below including your Humboldt Crabs and more than the usual amount of theatrical performances. 

If the hardcore punk show at the Eureka Veterans Hall terrifies you, the whimsical harmonies emanating from HumBrews tonight courtesy the T Sisters may be more up your alley. LoCO readers may recall them as one-time subjects of the Humboldt Live Sessions. Refresh your memory below. —AG
