I’m going to keep pumping up shows at Savage Henry Comedy Club for as long as it takes for the ship to right itself, the public to keep it afloat and beyond. I have an agenda when it comes to keeping our offbeat and one-of-a-kind clubs alive, particularly those who host all-ages shows, because Lord […]

It’s another Metal Monday over at Savage Henry Comedy Club tonight at 7 p.m. I was stuck pondering the unreadable band logos on the flyer but was luckily hanging out with my good buddy Shea, who helped me out of the jam with some cooperative sleuthing. Best as we can tell, the line-up is as […]

Savage Henry Comedy Club is once again hosting Metal Monday, an early (7 p.m.) all-ages throwdown that starts the week out right. Tonight’s link-up is particularly fine, with post-post grunge band Gnawed On coming down the mountain with Mystery Meat, Abandons and Only Echoes.

Ain’t Misbehavin’
Despite last week’s wild news cycle, you will not be getting any political talk from me now. I stand by my words from a few weeks ago, before the debate, that because we are all locally removed from national electoral culpability, we are free to chase our own winds, fair or foul. I’ll even go […]

I don’t mind boosting another Metal Monday night at Savage Henry Comedy Club because the lineups are good at balancing local talent with touring acts, I’m happy to support anything resembling a local metal scene and this regular gig is dependable, and Mondays are a tough field to carve out anything lasting on, and I […]
