Mental Health Comedy Hour Friday Night!

Laugh at the Lot

Alright hoes, you're welcome, and I say that with love! New mic in Oakland and A CASH PRIZE!👀 Every second Thursday: “Laugh at The Lot”, sponsored by NorthLake, run and hosted by yours truly, Tam Ellis! (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶) ‹3 On the corner of 23rd and Broadway! $50 cash to the strongest set of the night + a headline spot at the next show. 🎤 6-minute sets ⏰ Start: 5:30pm \| Hard stop: 7:30pm 📝 Evens/odds posted morning-of ✍️ In-person signups (odds): 5:15pm And as a heads up: Comedy is PG-13 at this venue since it's outdoors. Not strictly clean, not too dirty. "Suggestive, not explicit" is the wave. Quick rule of thumb: if you wouldn’t say it in front of a 13 year old in public, holding a mic won't make that better! Save it for a late night, raunchier mic (ദ്ദി ˙ᗜ˙ ) And it's right next to The Melt, Mama's Boy Pizza, The Athletic Club, MIXT; perfect to grab a late lunch/early dinner and perform. Grab a bite, then grab the mic! ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧
