Live LOLz

The 12th annual Nevada City Film Festival, which runs August 16-19, at the Miners Foundry Cultural Center, isn’t just about movies—the event encompasses music and comedy, too. This year’s showcase features comedians such as Eric Andre, Tim Heidecker and Nick Kroll—the latter who, following stints on TV series such as Parks and Recreation, Portlandia and Community, just wrapped up shooting for his debut self-titled Comedy Central show, set to air later this year. DJ Douggpound (pictured) hosts the night with something billed as an “absurdist DJ set.” We have no idea what that entails, but we’re betting it’ll be good for at least a few LOLz. Tickets are $15.
