Tonight’s Huckleberry Flint-Headlined Folklife Festival Show in Blue Lake is Way Sold Out
Well, hell.
There are no tickets left for Thursday night’s Humboldt Folklife Festival Under the Stars event featuring Huckleberry Flint at any local outlets or online. None. You waited! We told you!
Conceivably you could head to Blue Lake and wait around Dell’Arte for people with will call tickets to not show up — lazy radio contest winners or people who died after purchasing them online — but that seems like a stretch. If you do make the trek and don’t get in, hey, at least you can hang out at the Logger Bar — the LaPatinas are playing a likely rollicking set there following the main event across the street.
There’s also other very good musical options elsewhere: Rockabilly road warriors the Phenomenauts are palying a show at Morris Graves and The Quick and Easy Boys will undoubtedly blow the roof off Humboldt Brews.
To sum, Humboldt-style procrastination will bite you occasionally!
