Monday Night LOL
8:00 pm · North End
A punk-rock dive doing comedy in the room where a band usually is. The crowd is loud and did not necessarily come for stand-up — which makes it the best place in the city to learn how to hold a room.

The Bedford mic — worth the drive precisely because it isn’t on the peninsula. Different crowd, fewer comics in the room, and material that dies downtown sometimes works fine out here.
