Friday, Aug. 6: Doug Stanhope

Jazzbones

The last time Doug Stanhope was in Tacoma he allegedly got drunk at Jazzbones and took his manhood out on stage. Of course, this happens all the time at Jazzbones, so it wasn't very surprising. Stanhope heads back to Jazzbones this week, as booze and cigarette fueled as ever, and having only increased his reputation as a Bill Hicks torchbearer intent on tearing the institution of "comedy" down from the inside. It's a train wreck sometimes, but it's always fun to watch. Read the full story here.
