Laff It Up— Russ Meyer, owner of Laffs Comedy Club (6001 San Mateo NE, Suite C-1), will headline his own club on Wednesday, May 3. I’m told he’s a very funny man. Show starts at 8:30 p.m. As an added bonus, Wednesdays are College and Military ID Night. Flash one ID and your whole party gets in for free. Even if you aren’t a college student or a soldier, admission is only $6. If you could put a price on laughter, which you can’t, six bucks would still be a steal.
