THURSDAY LOWDOWN: Final Weekend for ‘The Hollow’, The Dip at The Jam, Savage Henry’s Latest Thing
Right off, we should note that this is the final weekend to catch NCRT‘s production of The Hollow. You might have a hard time getting tickets on either Friday or Saturday night, so maybe Thursday night’s performance is for you! Think on that.
Elsewhere, up in Arcata there are a couple shows we’ll Youtube pump:
- Seattle soul-rockers The Dip share The Jam stage with similar enough locals The Velvet Touch — the latter band has a guitarist celebrating a birthday. Take a dip of The Dip in the clip below on the left.
- You want to haha? Savage Henry Magazine seduces another comedian-savvy-enough-to-get-on-Conan up to our neck of the woods. This time they’ve got Jackie Kashian at the Arcata Theatre Lounge. Did we mention Conan? Below on the right. —AG
