Of all the types of places that we’ve seen comedy in LA, seeing it in a streetwear store is something we haven’t seen yet.

Next Monday, June 26th, that’ll change as Classic Era will be having Classic Comedy. There will be a killer line-up in addition to plenty of streetwear, tacos, sangria, and more.

Best of all, it’s free to attend. Get more details here.

For our money, one of the best ways to catch the fantastic Jen Kirkman in LA is at her recurring show, Lab Test, at the Hollywood Improv Comedy Lab. True to the title, Jen throws new material into a crucible along with great special guests.

The next editions of Jen Kirkman Presents Lab Test are on Wednesday, June 28th & August 16th and tickets are only $5. Please get them here.

Andy Daly has built a cavalcade of iconic characters throughout his comedy careers. Some of those characters are monstrous, but in a devilishly fun way. 

So, Daly is doing a whole solo show Andy Daly: Monsters Take Your Questions where he takes questions as those very characters. We have no doubt Dalton Wilcox and Don DiMello fielding questions will be a hell of a good time.

Catch the show before it heads off to the Edinburgh Fringe this August. Tonight’s engagement is stand by only, but you can buy tickets for upcoming dates (Fri, Jun. 30th @ UCB Sunset 9:30PM and Thu. Jul. 6th @ UCB Franklin 9:30PM) at UCB here.

Revered punk label Fat Wreck Chords is throwing a comedy show, their first one in fact, this Wednesday night. Appropriately called Fat Calm Eddie, the show will go down at The Lost Room in Echo Park (1538 W. Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA) and really does feature some of the funniest people that LA has to offer. 

It doesn’t get much more Echo Park, and we mean that in the best way possible, than this.

Running an indie show here in LA from a non-traditional venue is hard enough to do and pulling it off for a year is definitely impressive.

So, give some love to The Frogtown Show celebrating their one year anniversary of offering live comedy under the lovely LA sky and in the back patio of a great vintage store, The Left Bank.

Also, the line-up is pretty damn solid. Get more details here.
