Higher Ground Fall Comedy Series (So. Burlington, VT)

In what might be called one of your “non-traditional comedy venues,” Higher Ground Music is serving up a solid series of comedy shows to citizens of South Burlington, VT, and surrounding area.

We have good memories of working in Burlington (at the defunct Comedy Zone in the Radisson). The town has a good mix of college students, independent New Englanders, ex-hippies and regular folk. And they all dig comedy.

And so, apparently do the folks who book Higher Ground. In addition to producing shows with acts as diverse as Ween and Burning Spear and Leo Kottke, they’re bringing in comics like Demetri Martin, Eugene Mirman and Leo Allen (next Thursday night, two shows) and Andrew Kennedy and Tom Cotter (Nov. 5). The Fall Series will be capped with two Bob Saget, It Ain’t “Full House” shows on Dec. 17. (Check out the Higher Ground website for ticket prices and show times.

We’ll be headed to SoBu in January for two shows on the 21st. We’ll keep you posted!
