I'm heading to Archie's Barber Shop tomorrow night and give their open mic a shot.  It'd be great to see other gittys!

Just found out that Jojo's open mic in downtown Frederick is Mondays at 9:oo. One of the best craft beer selections in town, too!

nicely nicely.  i aim to be there!  just gotta avoid that bug that's been going around.

also, if you guys are into open mics - there's some nice ones in frederick md.  sunday nights are great at cafe nola, and tuesday nights at the cellar door too.

So, a local gathering, eh? Anyone know of an Open Mic or anything we can invade again like we did at Bangkok Blues?
