Disclaimer Stand-up Lounge is the longest running comedy open mic in Asheville happening every Wednesday night
The show starts at 8:00, and there is no cover. Anyone wanting to perform needs to sign up by 8pm, and will get five minutes on stage. Local and not-so-local, professional and not-so-professional comics perform or just anyone wanting to get up in front of people and try to make them laugh. Always fun. Always free.
Anyone wanting to perform needs to sign up by 8pm, and will get five minutes on stage. The order of sign-up is not necessarily the order of the show.

“Move On Up” is a night of your favorite and forgotten Soul/RB cuts right after Comedy Night.
