Locally-Sourced Laughs

Reminder: UA Presents Stand-Up Comedy and Free Beer Tonight!

— By Kevin Montgomery (@kevinmonty) |

That’s right: at 9pm tonight, seven of our favorite local comics will be taking stage at the Roxie Theater while you sit back and indulge in some free Pabst.  It’s going to be a helluva show, as it’ll be one of Sean Keane’s last before he makes the big leap to LA.  Plus, the always hilarious Chris Garcia will be headlining. (And if you haven’t seen it yet, do watch his set (above) on the Mission from three years ago.)

Tickets are still on sale ($7!), but you can also get ‘em at the door.  See everyone tonight!

Uptown Almanac's Locally-Sourced Pop-Up Comedy Night Returns Tuesday, 4/15!

— By Kevin Montgomery (@kevinmonty) |

We’ve had such a blast doing our last few locally-sourced comedy pop-ups that we’ve got Pabst and the Roxie back together for a spring show!  So at 9pm Tuesday, April 15th, we’re taking over the Roxie Theater to bring you seven of the finest Bay Area comics (and ample PBR for your enjoyment).  And this show’s line-up is one of our best yet.

The always funny Chris Garcia (who was at our very first show in 2011) will be headlining.  Known locally for being a staple of The Business at The Dark Room and having a killer set on the Mission, Chris left us a few years ago to return to his native Los Angeles.  But he’s been busy ripping it up in LA, being featured on This American Life and WTF with Marc Maron.

Joining Chris on stage will be:

And Sean Keane will be back to host!

Tickets are on sale now (and will be on sale at the door).  Just $7!  As always, your ticket gets heaps of free PBR.
