Local Comedians Appeal to LoCO Zen Crowd, Diss Thunderdomers
If you are a frequenter of LoCO’s Thunderdome you are officially disinvited from Sunday night’s show at the Savage Henry Comedy Club. This ruling according to comedians Cornell Reid and Evan Vest, the evening’s headliners, who want none of Thunderdome vibes as they attempt to record a comedy album. Stay home, they say! However, if you are one of the peaceful, silent majority who operate in LoCO’s Zen realm, well, this bud’s for you. Come laugh and be merry. You’ve earned it.
Details on Sundays yuks in the Lowdown below. Also, you may have noted that the main Lowdown page itself doesn’t have its own comment section. But here’s one.
