Open Mic Network Update – May 11th, 2010

Wow! What a week it has been.

Between a busy Open Mic @ The Dan and the Grand Opening of the Open Mic @ The Third Cork both Darren and I were completely run off our feet.

But we wouldn’t have it any other way :)

Last weeks Grand Opening of the Open Mic @ The Third Cork in Semaphore was an astounding success, so much so it exceeded even my optimistic expectations. We had a full book of performers who performed to an inch of their lives in the wonderfully performer-friendly atmosphere that is the Third Cork.

While it was a welcome sight to see some Open Mic regulars at The Third Cork it was also fantastic to see some new and/or local acts taking to the Open Mic stage, namely Angie Starr, Andrea Dawson (what a voice), Nick & John who gave us a Beatles masterclass, Alicia & Heath rocking it out for the first time as a covers duo plus the Lady Gaga acoustic stylings of Sean Kemp. Thanks guys for giving the Open Mic @ The Third Cork a go, you’re welcome back anytime.

A special thanks needs to go out to Catherine and her staff at The Third Cork for the wonderful food, drink and especially the hospitality shown to us. It really does help the cause when the venue is beautifully presented and the management “get” what an Open Mic is all about. Thank You!

“What about the Open Mic @ The Dan?” I hear you say…

Well, to my surprise it was not too busy and not too slow. The pace was just right plus, we had a new face grace the stage at The Dan, his name is Arty Delrio and he pumped out a fantastic performance. Not bad for someone who was just passing through Adelaide.
