Lowdown: HumBrews Promises You Can Go See Chralie Parr and Still Get Repectable Pillow Time

You know how when a venue lists a show as starting at 9:30 p.m. and you and your savvy, show-attending brain go, “Uh huh. That means 11:30.” Sadly, this is common.  Well, Humboldt Brews hosts this Humboldt Tuesday’s most notable musical offering in the form of plaintive, folk/blues craftsman Charlie Parr and they totally get that you have to get up tomorrow. The following promise comes from HumBrews’ Facebook page:

We received a ton of feedback of how much you all appreciated an early show the last time Charlie Parr came to visit... thus, we're doing it again! 

OK! HumBrews says you can honor you bedtime, HumCo! Sample Parr’s authenticity in the YouTube clip below and/or peruse the rest of your Lowdown listings farther down. --AG
