Open Mic Update (Windsor Ontario)

Figured this news was worth a new thread, instead of just refreshing the old one....

Windsor is now NON-SMOKING!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, come out you pink-lungers, and support live folksy, acoustic music, so that the merchants of death who want us to believe that bars and pubs are all going to close can be proved wrong!!!

Monday Nights.... I warm up the crowd, starting at about 9:30.... and the Open Mic starts when we have a performer or two waiting in the wings... Usually goes until 12 or 1 Am and the the prize is given out ($25 gift Certif. to Riverside Music)

Google Map "The Kildare House"

Music/performance format remains fast and loose.... Try what you want, and the audience won't lie to you.... if you're entertaining, they'll pay attention... if you aren't, they'll talk and play cards and such, just like people do in a bar/pub....

There are often Digital cameras about so it's a good way to get a pic for your web site.... Mini-disk recordings are also a possibility (contact me ahead of time if you're so interested)

Are you on for Monday, July 3? The next day's some sort of holiday on our side of the Detroit River so I could stay up late. If I'm in town I'll try to sneak my guitar past Customs and stop by.

Windor Folk Club?

Only in that the current President of the WFC plays at my Open Mic almost every week.... And sometimes I wear my Windsor Folk t-shirt....

He got so many gift certificats last year (Some nights he was the only one there) that he used 'em to get himself a 12 string....

Come on out and help keep 25 bucks outa Daves hand!

LOL
