THURSDAY LOWDOWN: Savage Henry Comedy Festival Yuks Commence; Full Schedule Here

You have been warned. Over the next few days there is ample chance that one of the normally respectable Humboldt establishments you’re fond of frequenting could be overrun by attention-seeking comedians hoping to extract laughter from your face. That’s because, once again, the Savage Henry Comedy Festival is set to takeover the county with over 100 comedians and a ludicrous 40-odd shows. Seriously, it can be hard to wrap your brain around the scope of this thing. Luckily, your LoCO Lowdown has cobbled together a day-by-day schedule that you can peruse at the following links — Thursday, Friday, Saturday. 

If you’re unfamiliar with how this thing works, sure, you could buy tickets to the individual shows. But the folks at Savage Henry would really rather prefer you purchase an All-Fest Wristband for total access to the frivolity and what have you. Your call. Details in the event listing below or choose an event less hilarious from your Lowdown listings.
