Musical Open Mic Night: Mar. 7 2011 @ Kengeles, Lavington


Musical Open Mic Night is an event where musicians come together to share tunes, skills and just jam. The idea is to keep it as relaxed and informal as possible, but if turns out we have throngs of performers, then time on the mic will be rationed.

One acoustic and one electric guitar will be provided, along with two amplifiers. Hopefully a small mic and PA will be available as well. Feel free to bring your own instruments also (bongos, vibraphone, kazoo).

Bring an instrument or just yourself. Perform or simply enjoy. The more the merrier!

when: Monday, March 7 · 7:00pm – 11:30pm
where: Kengeles, Lavington
