The Open Mic Network

Open Mic Network Update – August 16th, 2010

Hi everybody,

Last weeks Open Mic @ The Dan was all a blur for me as I was held up due to a previously organised rehearsal that I needed to be at.

Notwithstanding that, I still managed to get to the Open Mic with 2 minutes to spare but felt rushed all night because of it, sos much so I forgot my camera and therefore no photos but, Sean Wiegand and his trusty pen and paper came to the rescue. He decided that sketching some artists would be the way to go and as you can see below, the results speak for themselves.

That aside, I still had a great night, the list was full to the brim and the performances were fantastic.

There were a couple of new faces who graced the Open Mic stage last week. First of all was Ray Melton’s friend Gordon who formed a duo with Ray for the night and both of them performed very well considering that the Open Mic @ The Dan was their first performance together in over a year. Well done!

The second new face is a fellow by the name of Ben Todd who was celebrating his birthday last week and decided to get up on stage. What followed was an amazing performance that stunned everyone there, including some of his friends who had no idea that Ben could perform the way he did.

Personally, I thought Ben was superb and it shows to me again the power of the Open Mic Network in getting people out of their bedrooms and onto the stage…

Where they belong!

In other Open Mic Network news…

I just wanted to let you all know that Sunday Sessions @ The Dan #4 with special guest Simon Peter will NOT be happening on Sunday August 22nd but the week after on Sunday August 29th. If the upcoming Sunday Sesh was like the last one then it promises to be HUGE!

Here’s a reminder of what is happening this week on the Open Mic Network:
