This evening at Coppull Open Mic was really busy, with a great line-up of artists performing a wide variety of songs. This doesn't mean there isn't room for more. Besides performers, all are welcome to come and listen - the audience is a friendly bunch and the drinks are cheap.There was a rumour going around that maybe last month was a bit quiet because there was confusion about the date of the meeting which was the next-to-last Wednesday in the month. This has now been changed. We now get together on the third Wednesday.
Normally this would make no difference - only when there are five Wednesdays causes a shift. As it happens, this April is one of those months as it starts on a Wednesday. So, please note: are next meeting is Wednesday 15th April. Please come along and jon in the fun.
A new development was we had a keyboard player - however, an attempt to play along to a drum machine for a bit of Elton John style rock'n'roll was a failure! Ah well, ballads are just as good. So if there's any drummers out there, or any other musicians - on oboe, didgeridoo or krumhorn, come along. You are welcome to a solo spot and we may get a bit of a jam going too.
Here are some pictures from a busy evening.
"Look, Auntie, no hands!"
I heard it was a good night. Has word got around about this monthly event? Nobody wants to practice in front of the barmaid...

ReplyDeleteWe've been putting our heads together to come up with a way of publicising the evening and have come up with... well, frankly, nothing very much. If anyone can think of advertising we can use please let us know. Meanwhile, the only thing we've got is for people to tell other people, invite them along and that sort of thing!
