Local H is known for their frequent and energetic live shows. The members of the band can usually be found at their own merchandise table after shows, signing autographs and selling band T-shirts.

Local H also has a reputation for creative ideas with regards to its live shows. In addition to playing a show in Chicago every [[New Year's Eve]], the band has also participated in several unconventional concerts over the years, such as allowing one fan to select an album name from a hat, and then playing that album in its entirety. In 2005, Local H performed an "all request tour" in which a ballot containing a breakdown of most of the bands' songs organized into various categories, resembling a traditional [[sushi]] menu, was handed out to the audience upon admittance to the venue. Audiences were allowed to pick seven songs from the "menu" and the setlist for each show was derived from these ballots.

In 2003, the band auctioned off a live show to the winner of an [[eBay]] auction. The band subsequently performed this concert at Duke O'Briens, a pub in [[Crystal Lake, IL]].

In July 2007, Local H played an early morning show at [[U.S. Cellular Field]] in Chicago at the conclusion of the Nike Rock 'N Run 5K race, where runners ended the race on the field.  Tickets to this show were only available by spotting Scott Lucas in public and speaking the phrase [[2112 (song)|"Attention all planets of the Solar Federation, we have assumed control"]] directly to him.{{Citation needed|date=June 2010}} Later that same year, Local H announced a contest in which fans could make videos of themselves covering Local H songs.  The winner would then get to be the opening act for Local H's New Year's Eve show later that year. A band from [[New York City|New York]] called Kung-Fu Grip won the contest with their cover of a song from Local H's ''No Fun'' E.P.

During the spring months of 2010, Local H embarked on their "6 Angry Records" Tour. Each show began with Scott holding a hat filled with slips of paper containing the band's album names. After interviewing members of the audience about which album they'd like to hear, one audience member would choose an album from the hat. The band would then play that album on the spot in its entirety, followed by an encore of other Local H favorites and covers.
