Friday Lowdown: Soul Night, Graham Nash, Teatro Pachuco!

What’s more fun than honking the horn while pretending to drive a big rig? Your Humboldt Friday, potentially! 

As is often the case, you might have a tough time getting tickets to Soul Night, Humboldt Brews monthly exercise in joy, but we will note that the rumors of tonight’s edition being the last one are not true. DJs Matt and Adam will be grooving with ya until at least May at which point some sort of evolution may occur. Stay tuned. 

Graham Nash will be at the Van Duzer Theatre

The Arcata Playhouse Family Series opens with a performance that seems like a live action version of the era of silent film. Formerly local actor and physical comedian Rudi Galindo returns to Humboldt from Belgium along with his troupe Teatro Pachuco for a performance of their piece Coup De Foudre. Get a taste of what the group serves up in the clip below. Full details on the aforementioned shows and much more in your Lowdown listings below that. --AG
