Thursday Open Mic Tonight



Lately we've been joined by some fabulously talented new regulars, such as stand-up comics (Chance, Corey Dimmer) and new singer songwriters (including Brian Stokes, Jackie and more). It has been really great just to be surprised and delighted by the scene developing at the Sofa--in the middle of the summer, no less, which in previous years has tended to be like a month for Oysters without an "R" in it.

Hope you can come out tonight. The Christophers (Goudreau and Griffin) will lead the end-of-night-singalong and have selected a Neil Young jam song beloved by generations of teen aged guitarists for its fabulous intimations of rock and roll glory, for its unchallenged ease in soloing and for its rarely-questioned, questionable lyrics: "Down By the River (I shot my baby)" from the indispensable 1969 Crazy Horse Album "Everybody Knows this is Nowhere."

Also hope to see many of you at the Michael Silverstone and the Foregone Conclusions show at the Sofa this Saturday Night, Aug 6 @ 8:00. More information at:

Openly,
