Open Mic

Open mic at the Old Town Hall last Saturday, was great! I love that space. It has character and atmosphere, great lighting, and seems a pity it is not used more often. People brought their own food, there is no kitchen, so we can't provide anything, and lots of great musicians turned up. As usual they took a slot each for fifteen minutes, then jammed together for the second part of the evening. That's the bit I love. There is something about a bunch of musicians getting together and jamming. It has amazing energy. They are so obviously enjoying themselves and each other that it is pure joy for the listener.  

David and I were thinking that it would be a great space for a dance. We wondered what you think? A barn dance? Or a dance to the music of , the Uncle Steve Band? Or both. We do have every Saturday night till the Mica building comes down. We could have open mic on the Friday that week, or have it early before the dance. 

Open mic again this Saturday, 7 pm to 10 pm

Please post comments and ideas. Let us know what you think.

  2. It's just on the other side of the square on summer street. A white building. Can't find the street number but it's easy to find,
