Description: If you secretly want to sing in public but are terrified……
If you are an experienced singer who wants to try out new material.
If you you want to get a reaction to a new idea…
Come along to this open mic session.

Bring lyrics and charts, a backing track or a guitar, or better still someone to accompany you. I will provide a mic, amp keyboard, cd player and a cable where you can plug in your i-pod/mp3 player. If the chords are simple I can try to accompany you (although my playing is not the best).

£2 on the door although if turn out is good enough I will refund performer\’s payments.
Start Time: 16:00
Date: 2009-06-14
End Time: 19:00

I’m thinking of doing it on 14 June but nothing is set in stone yet.

I like the idea that people can turn up with simple guitar chords or a backing track and get to perform.  I know it would be good for lots of my students so I am sure there are other folks out there that would benefit from it too.

Let me know if you have any ideas of where to do it.
