From traveling business types to hard-core college students, the Howlin' Wolf draws a diverse crowd that tends to skew on the younger side. Located near the Convention Center, this live music club also features free comedy shows, Comedy Beast in The Den every Tuesday, a free stand-up showcase hosted by Andrew Polk of Massive Fraud and Comedy Gumbeaux in The Den bar on Thursdays and The club holds about 500 people with an upstairs balcony area as well as pool tables in the back. The ambiance is loud, the crowd energetic, and the prices for drinks and cover are affordable. The bathrooms, however, are on the rough side so be prepared.
