Open Mic @ The Dan Update – May 11th, 2009

Hi everybody,
I need to make this weeks update short and sweet as there are so many things I’ve yet to do in preparation for the Grand Launch of the new Open Mic @ The Joiners Arms this Thursday night, May 14th.
My gut feeling is that this Thursday’s launch is going to be HUGE!

Spread the [...]

Open Mic @ The Dan Update – May 4th, 2009

Hi everybody,
Last week was a great example of how an Open Mic should be run.
Everyone did their bit to make sure that the night was seamless, there were no uncomfortable gaps in the program which meant that from 7:30pm until closing the Open Mic @ The Dan was awash with amazing talent providing non-stop entertainment [...]

Open Mic @ The Dan Update – April 26th, 2009

Hi everybody,
Last weeks Open Mic was the first to start at 7:30pm and it seemed the experiment worked a treat.
When I arrived at The Dan at 6:30pm I was amazed to find a line up of performers wanting to personally book their spot on the running sheet.
By 7:10pm all 18 performer spots had been filled. [...]

Open Mic @ The Dan Update – April 13th, 2009

Hi everybody,
Last weeks Open Mic was bigger and better than even the record breaking extravaganza a fortnight ago.
The running sheet was full by between 6:45pm and 6:50pm and The Dan was the busiest I’ve seen it in a long time on any night (not including any pub crawls that come through from time to time).
For [...]

Open Mic @ The Dan Update – April 6th, 2009

Hi everybody,
I hope the end of daylight savings wasn’t too confusing for you. I always seem to get the clock thing mixed up no matter how many times I try to remember it.
Anyway, last weeks Open Mic @ The Dan broke some kind of record for the shortest amount of time taken to fill a [...]

Open Mic @ The Dan Update – March 30th, 2009

Hi everybody,
Last weeks Open Mic did not disappoint one little bit. It was again a great example of what happens when a great pub and a great concept comes together with a great crowd and great performances.
We had 17 performers on the list including one new face by the name of Richard Semmens who gave [...]

Open Mic @ The Dan Update – 23rd March, 2009

Hi everybody,
Even with the Adelaide Fringe in full swing the Open Mic @ The Dan was jam-packed with performers and punters alike. Out of the 19 performers booked, we had 4 new faces grace the Open Mic stage last week, they were:

Tom Phillips – Well crafted pop songs that you swear you’ve heard on the [...]

Open Mic @ The Dan Update – March 16th, 2009

Hi everyone,
Last weeks Open Mic lifted the benchmark and set a new standard in the quality of performance. We had 17 performers on the list and all of them put in performances that would’ve befitted venues anywhere in the world.
I kid you not, last weeks Open Mic was up there in my top 3 Open [...]

Open Mic @ The Dan Update – March 10th, 2009

Hi everybody,
As you would’ve noticed (unless this is your first Open Mic update) I haven’t sent out any Open Mic @ The Dan updates of late. This is because I’ve been having some ongoing problems with BigPond regarding my email updates.
BigPond won’t let me send out more than 20 emails at one go which causes [...]
