ACOUSTIC OPEN MICS
***Monday Open Mic at Porter Belly's!!! Sept. 20th
Say what? Yup. We're gonna give it a go. Starting Monday, Sept. 20th, we will be hosting a weekly acoustic open mic at Porter Belly's Pub in Brighton (same as Devlin's, just one door down on Washington St.).
We hope you and your people have weathered well during this Covid conundrum. Be well. Make music.
Monday Open Mic
- Porter Belly's Pub, 338 Washington St., Brighton, MA 02135
- https://porterbellyspub.com/
- Sign starts: 8:00pm, Open Mic starts: 8:30pm, Ends at Midnight
***Covid Concerns
As we have always done, we'll have sanitizing wipes for microphones. We won't be able to accommodate large groups. It's a tight stage. Singers need to be 6' apart, so no more than 2 at a time. The Boston mask mandate is what it is. You should use your own judgement and comfort level to decide if you want to attend. We will not be able to police the behavior of the pub's patrons. We will also not be able to have a "house" guitar.

Memorial Jam for Brian Reilly
Unfortunately, our memorial jam for Brian Reilly on Oct 2nd needs to be postponed once again, due to Covid concerns from the friends and family. Brian was a kind, friendly friend, regular performer at Tommy Doyle's open mic, and played in several other groups in our network, such as Ben G and the Bureaucats, Mojo Jubilee, and Dreamtime Travelers.
