Ashford Arms Open Mic 9/30/2010

This is just the damnedest thing you've ever seen!  I drag some PA equipment out to some neighborhood bar, and before you know it some of the finest musicians in Houston Texas show up to play for the patrons.  It's not just a fluke either.  I'm telling you, it works any night of the week in any part of town.  Houston's Open Mic Community is AMAZING! 

Here is the roster from last Thursday night at Ashford Arms Open Mic.

Many, many thanks to each and every one of you!  Your support of live music is what makes open mics possible.  

One last little bit for the Blog readers only.  I missed getting good pictures of three of the musicians last week, so I dug into the archive for something to post.  Let's see who can figure out which three pictures are actually from previous open mics.  

Hope to see you out and about.
