| - My posse (does anyone say that anymore?) went to the Hidden House for free comedy night last night. This review is specific to "Free Comedy Night", I don't think I would appreciate the 'music' nights there, based on what I've heard about the 'acts' that 'play' there. That said, we begin...
Total dive bar, cheap steaks, strong drinks and a gaggle of mostly OK comedians (some were very good!). I like it, it's easy to get to from my house, the drinks were strong, and fairly easy to get, even though it did get crowded once the comedy started. They've got a decent selection of draft beer, and a pretty good selection of top shelf liquor (better then I expected from the outside). I didn't realize the cocktail lounge and the pool room (to tell the truth, I thought it was a laundry-mat :-) were the same business, and I didn't go over to the more well lighted side. The cocktail lounge/music side is dark, though, perfect mood.
And the comedy? At times, side-splitting, laugh out loud hilarity. Others times, not so much. But they run 10 or so comics thru in about 2 hrs, so the not-so-good comics are through blissfully quick, and, unfortunately, the good ones are done too soon.
I may not go every Wednesday, but I'll go again, for sure.
