MONDAY LOWDOWN: Green Day
The good news is: Humboldt has rallied to meet your need for St. Patrick’s Day festivities that meet long-established cliches. The bad news is: Someone in your crew will need to sacrifice and serve as the designated driver. Tradition!
Scroll your Monday Lowdown below for details on a number of green-themed gatherings, notably at the Logger Bar, The Basement, Kaptain’s Quarters and Gallagher’s Irish Pub. For a calmer-yet-holiday-appropriate engagement, wrap your brain around Boston fiddler Hanneke Cassel, a frequent Humboldt musical guest who will undoubtedly will up The Old Steeple nicely.
Go forth. Be green. -AG
