All acoustic acts are invited and welcome to come perform and hang out. We need spectators too!
For the remainder of 2010, I'll be hosting Open Mic from 7 to 9 PM on the FIRST THURSDAY of the month at Waterhouse.

New Web/Blog Page Design
Hi Friends and Fans!
As you can see, the old Couch Concert web page has been replaced by this (imho) better one, thanks to BLOGGER joining the 21st century on template designs.
Leave a comment to let me know what you think or suggest other improvements.
Also, CACTUS JOE'S OPEN MIC is on for this Wednesday 6/16 at Brink Lounge in Madison WI.
It's from 9:30 to 11:30 PM and will feature several local Madison-area bands.
I already have all the 30-minute showcase slots filled except for one. So if you are in a local band that would like to perform this week, E-MAIL ME ASAP or post a comment below.
Otherwise, just come out and enjoy the music. It's FREE and bottles of wine are 1/2 off on Wednesdays at the Brink Lounge.

CJ Open Mic Kickoff Party and Open Stage - Wednesday June 2 at Brink Lounge (Madison WI)
Hi Everyone!
My Wednesday Open Mic at Brink Lounge kicks off on Wednesday June 2 with an open stage party at the Brink. Bring your axe and we'll rock until everyone has had a go at the mic.
IMPORTANT: If you want to perform at the open mic this summer, it is really important that you attend this show (or get ahold of me via Facebook or e-mail ASAP).
This is because the Brink Lounge is asking that I pre-book open mic slots for the available Wednesdays from June - August. (Note: no open mic June 9 and July 28, due to events.)
Although there will be no walk-ins this year (unless there are no shows), musicians/bands can now book 30-60 minute showcase slots to flaunt their stuff for the Brink and its patrons (instead of the usual 15 minutes at other open mics).
Think of it as kind of like an Open Mic American Idol (only less lame and no Simon). We are taking it up a notch.
At the June 2 party, musicians and bands who want to book a future Wednesday night slot for the summer can do so. I will have the calendar available. I will also book via E-MAIL if you cannot make the June 2 party. However, I will not be able to book you until after June 2, to give party goers dibs on slots. So if you can come to the party, that is optimal.
The Brink will be looking for two things from the open mikers - musicianship & draw (how many people come to see you perform). The more people you can invite on June 2, the better for booking a slot later in the summer.
If you need help with promotion, please visit www.cactusjoeproductions.com and subscribe to the DIY musician blog. I will post tips and resources for marketing your music periodically.
So invite as many people as you want/can for the open stage on Wednesday June 2, and let's have a ball!
Rock-n-roll!

Won't You Help Me Save Fat Boyz (Fort Atkinson WI) Wednesday Open Mic?
Hi Music Lovers and Providers.
We have a situation!
Hog Pen/Fat Boyz (Fort Atkinson WI) open mic host Mario has been valiantly hosting an open mic night every Wednesday from 8-11 PM.
Notwithstanding $6 all-you-can-eat chicken wings, attendance has been light lately.
This will not stand! I realize we are in a downer economy and cultural illiteracy is at an all time high.
These are not legitimate excuses.
That's why I have decided to combine forces with Mario and help him save his open mic from THE MAN, who would like to shut down this awesome live music venue just to save a few pennies.
No.
Let's let THE MAN know exactly what we think about that.
CACTUS JOE'S OPEN MIC will go "mobile" on Wednesday April 14. We will hold it in conjunction with Mario's Hog Den Open Mic Night at Fat Boyz (upstairs) in Fort Atkinson WI from 8-11 PM.
If the $6 all-you-can-eat chicken wings are not enough incentive for you, then do it for the troops, or the children, or the old ladies, or boosting your own ego,...I don't care.
Just be there!
Car pooling is available for the Madison folks if they want to meet at my house in Cambridge on the way. Be here by 7 PM if you want to share a ride. Otherwise, be at Fat Boyz in Fort Atkinson WI by 8 PM.
We can do this!
