The Open Mic at Thai Fresh/Thrice Café: A Primer

Updated 9/26/2012

Hello and welcome to Thai Fresh/Thrice Café’s (Fourth) Thursday Open Mic. Singer-songwriters, composers and musicians (and their friends, fans and loved ones) welcome. Come on out to play or listen; we'd love to see -- and hear -- you!

How the (Fourth) Thursday Open Mic (usually) works:
  • As you can tell by the title, the open mic occurs on the fourth Thursday of the month
  • Each performer gets 15 minutes or a maximum of three songs, whichever is shorter*
  • 15 minutes includes time to set up and break down
  • The sign-up list is first-come, first-served
  • Performers must sign up in person; no surrogates, please!
  • The sign-up list will be ready for performers to sign up starting at 6:30pm, or as soon as I get to the café!
  • The open mic starts at 7:00pm and ends at 9pm
I hope we can provide a friendly, collegial place for you to strut your musical stuff. See you on Thursday night!

*Often we have enough time for performers to strum and sing through four or five songs. On quiet nights you might find you're playing an entire set!
