It's an unusually busy Thursday night here in Hum. Co. First up is EDM duo Hippie Sabotage, pulsing the knobs at the Mateel at 9 p.m. for all of the jet-setting pleasure seekers in the SoHum industrial matrix ($40, $35 advance).
At the same hour in Arcata for $30, you can hear syrup-thick twee pop music played by people with pixie-cut mullets, ear gauges and hand tattoos when Never Shout Never schmoozes into the Kate Buchanan Room at Humboldt State University.
Finally, tonight at Humbrews, you are cordially invited to visit the intersection of Burning Man, steam punk and the Oregon Country Fair when the hyperactive circus-dance experience MarchFourth makes a Napoleonic plunge into our nocturnal borderland at 9:30 p.m. ($20).
