Open Mic @ The Dan
Last week was a bumper week for the Open Mic @ The Dan. It seems that with every week that goes by it gets busier and busier.

We had 2 new faces grace the Open Mic stage. The first of them was well known singer Kylena Vigus who accompanied Rob Pickering on 3 songs and did a beautiful job. The second new face was Jacob Majba who informed me that his Open Mic performance was his first anywhere. I was really impressed with what he did and I hope that both Jacob and Kylena come back soon

It was also marked the welcome return of the duo of David Corkhill and John Veikerts plus the sweet, sweet sounds of Ute and her accordion.

Open Mic @ The Joiners
Last weeks Open Mic @ The Joiners was the quietest one yet with only 9 performers on the running sheet however, everyone who attended made the night last until 11pm by playing 4 songs instead of the usual 3. I must admit, the weather was very much against us that night, I hadn’t seen it so wet in a long, long time.

It was really great to see the return of Meredith W. Riley to the Open Mic stage. She was showcasing some new of her material and I tell you what, I could’ve listened to it all night but it was the first song that Jen Turner sang acapella that for me, was the highlight of the night. That song got the hairs standing on the back of everyone’s necks.

Breathtaking…

Here is a reminder of what is happening this week:

As always, make sure you get to the venue early to avoid disappointment and while you’re there, have a meal. I’ll be there at both venues from 6:30pm to take down names.

See you Wensdee and/or Thursdee,
