Events to Expect: The Drop Comedy Club presents


For this “Events to Expect Wednesday” I wanted to bring my reader’s attention to one of my favorite past times, stand-up comedy.  While I have never performed myself, watching stand-up comedy brings together two of my favorite things to do; laughing and drinking. While most people assume you have to go all the way to Chicago for such entertainment, The Drop Comedy Club is aspiring to be the number one place to laugh in South Bend. The Club is located on the corner of Lafayette and Sample inside the Dew Drop Inn. It showcases some of the best comedic talent touring throughout the United States, as well as local up and comers vying for their shot at the big time.

The Drop Comedy Club hosts nights every Tuesday, Friday and Saturday. Tuesday is their FREE open mic night, to which a friend of mine recently attended and performed. He said he really liked the experience despite the five minute time slot. On Fridays and Saturdays they have their regular performers, as well as celebrity guests and one night event specials that are scheduled months in advance. I attended one of their regular nights a few months ago to see a friend of a friend Zach Boyce. About five comedians went up on stage that night from the area, and for a local comedy show it received some serious praise from the crowd. As for an event to expect, Adult Swim writer and “Best of the Fest” Aspen Comedy Festival winner Stewart Huff will be performing at the Club March 7th with a $10 admission.

About this blog




What comes to mind when you hear the phrase, “Michiana nightlife?” Well if you’re from the Michiana area, you’re probably thinking…there, is no Michiana nightlife. For the unfamiliar, the Michiana area constitutes cities such as South Bend, Granger, and Mishawaka. It stretches as far south as Plymouth and all the way up north to Kalamazoo and Three Rivers. You mean to tell me, nay sayers, that there isn’t any sort of nightlife you can think of in the entire region just described? The point of this blog is to prove you wrong, and to share with fellow Michiana socialites my experiences from bars, nightclubs, and dancehalls all across the area.
In my experience, fun is where you make it. We have all been to places that didn’t have that particular vibe or awesome drink specials that allure us to our favorite destinations. Sometimes you get lucky; young crowd, good music, and great beer (Brother’s Bar & Grill, Oyster Bar, Bar Louie). Sometimes you find yourself in a place you wouldn’t expect to be fun, the place that people don’t talk about and you’re not always sure why (Peddlers, Bleacher’s The Bar, The View). You never really know until you try, which is why I’m making it my mission to try a different place every week. I will then report back here the kind of time I had, the people I met, the things I’ve seen etc. etc. In addition, I will be posting articles I’ve written for TheCelebrtiyCafe.com, and see if I can’t find a way to mix it organically. Feel free to leave your own experiences or recommendations for everyone else to see! Enjoy.
