Tuesday’s Lowdown: Cancelations, Bands and Yuks
We’ll start off Tuesday’s Lowdown noting that on of the more notable shows scheduled in Humboldt for this night — that being southern blues rocker JB Beverly at the Palm Lounge — has been canceled due to van bummers. So … bummer.
But never fear, HumCo fun-seekers: Those still salivating for bands will find at least three at both the Lil’ Red Lion and the Ink Annex, respectively. Breathe easy, kids.
Also Tuesday, Savage Henry Magazine hosts out-of-town standup comedians Barbara Gray and Dave Ross, the latter of whom hosts a podcast on the Nerdist network. The two headline the Him and Her Comedy Tour at HumBrews also featuring Humboldt standup veterans Cornell Reid, Ivy Vasquez and Zeke Herrera. Watch Ross discuss the horrendousness of the first standup bit he ever attempted in the clip below.
