Mic starts at 9:30
Feature goes on usually 11ish

Getting a lil Chaotic Evil™️ with Dr. Dan and a couple of his minions next Sunday at the usually Neutral Good™️ Starr Bar. The ticket price is so free that they literally don’t exist. The beer is not, but that (and a lot of it) does exist. Best vegan food in town. Cozy public restrooms. Something called a “pool table” or whatever. This place has fuckin everything. Come through!!

Threateningly,

Happy 9th birthday to @theopenmicdownstairs this place has been a blessing and home for me to dip my toes back into standup after a *significantly long and unscheduled* amount of time off. Its one of the few things I actively look forward to every week and I don’t know what I would be doing without it or any of the excellent humans and performers I get to see/hang with week in and week out. I request indoor fireworks for the inevitable 10th year 🧨🚀
