This is a badass comedy showcase featuring the best local and surrounding area comics at a badass tattoo shop venue! This is a FREE show! And it’s also BYOB! It’s a perfect Saturday night good time!
What we’re about
A great place to find live Asheville’s live comedy performances and other local comedy fans!
We’ll be posting all the Asheville-area stand-up comedy shows in the area (assuming I know about them). We’ve met several of you already, and we’d love to meet more of you!
Asheville has a lot of great comedy. There’s touring comics performing in larger venues. Asheville is also home to a thriving local scene with great local comics performing in smaller venues and opening for touring comics. There is also a great selection of open mics, so if you ever have the itch to try something out, you’ll have plenty of opportunities.

Ok this literally just came to me and I don’t have the details fully worked out in my head so go easy on me.
As we head into the winter months, it’s gonna get harder to have events. Also, I want to have more events in 2021 that don’t revolve around beer.
I did a Coffee Crawl in Charlotte a few years ago and it was fun. Let’s hop around Asheville going to indie coffee shops and rate the drinks – caffeinated, decaf, tea, hot cocoa, etc. We can take notes and come up with a winning shop, maybe go back and get a gift card to support the cafe.
Open to all suggestions and starting point recommendations
