Tuesday Lowdown: Tom Rhodes in Arcata Tonight
Do you feel up to laughing on a Tuesday, ever? That’s allowed, yeah? According to today’s Lowdown, this evening’s best chance for yuks can be found at Jambalaya courtesy of Savage Henry Magazine. Veteran road comic Tom Rhodes is back in town along with a lineup of the usual local suspects opening.
See below as Tom compares the progression of American society to Elvis Presley’s career arc. If that offends you, go watch the Crabs. —AG
