Churchill's Open Mic 6/1/2010

Things were a bit slow at Churchill's last Tuesday, but that didn't stop us from having plenty of fun and playing music.  Seems like whether we have a few players or a few too many, it's always a good time.  Churchill's is just a good place to hang out with friends.  They have good food and drink specials throughout the week,  Open Mic every Tuesday, Karaoke every Thursday, bands every Friday and Saturday, and solo or small combo groups on Sunday afternoons.  This alleged sports bar is quickly turning into a popular music venue.

The Open Mic lineup on Tuesday was John Barton, Randy Soffar, and Bruce Ross. Everyone got their spotlight, and then we pretty much just jammed the night away.  Plenty of fun and the bar patrons were appreciative.

Here is John Barton opening the evening with Randy Soffar backing him up on the Djembe.

Randy followed John and did a fun long set that included several of his originals from his Z Rock days.  ...and I didn't get one decent picture of him playing.  Here he is having a good time though.

Bruce Ross then took the stage and gave us a nice selection of his arrangements and new songs from his band Significant Others.

Then friends...
we jammed.

And it was fun.

And this is why we do it.

Thanks to Sarah, Marianne and the rest of the folks at Churchill's for supporting live music.
