Stand-up comic AJ Finney performs at The Millroom, Aug. 22

In a press release, Funny Business at The Millroom called comic AJ Finney an “eco-friendly, philosophical, patchouli-soaked quipster.” Finney performs at the venue on Saturday, Aug. 22, at 8 p.m.

Press release from event organizers:

On Saturday, August 22nd, nationally-acclaimed stand-up comedian AJ Finney is booked to perform at 8:00pm in downtown Asheville at The Millroom.

If Asheville had a spirt-comedian, it may just be AJ Finney: Stylistically manic, artistically brilliant, and a passion for the 60’s psychedelic scene. Comedy, Jam Bands, and Volkswagens; that’s him – he’s like an eco-friendly, improvisational, sometimes philosophical, patchouli soaked quipster.

“I’ve never been to Ashville, but It’s been explained to me as a magical place filled with beautiful people who’ve transcended to a higher understanding, or maybe that was the parking lot of a grateful dead show? Regardless I’m looking forward to having a real good time on 8/22/15.” –AJ Finney
