Open Mic Night at The Grind

Helllloooo everybody!

As you may or may not have heard we’re going to be trying something new . Let us present: Open Mic Night Summer Nights! The next four open mic’s will feature a local band (all of the chosen bands have played at our open mic before) who will have their own 20 minute set. Everything else will stay the same! Sign ups will still be at 6:30 and we run 7-9:30. This starts tonight, May 12th 2011! You won’t want to miss it!

I would consider myself pretty well versed in all the acts that have come through since The Grind’s Open Mic Night began and lemme tell ya, the featured bands all play great music and I personally have realllly enjoyed every time each of them have come to play at the open mic’s. 

Starting us off with the first Summer Nights Open Mic will be WEST OF SUNSET. West of Sunset alternative metal band Redwood City. 

Next month on June 6th will be PLEASE DO NOT FIGHT. Please Do Not Fight is an Indie Pop band from San Francisco, and our host Zen is in this band!

The following month on July 14th will be RIN TIN TIGER. Rin Tin Tiger is an Indie Folk band from San Francisco. 

August 11 brings us TRIBAL SUNS. Tribal Suns is a Psychedelic Indie Folk band from Redwood City.  

I would also like to add that I video record the acts and take the photos for the open mic, which is a lot of work! If anyone would like to help me with taking photos please email me or talk to me at the open mic. This will help out tremendously! I would like to encourage you to email any photos you take so we can add to the Flickr. Thank you!
