Hi All!

Cactus Joe's Cambridge Open Mic went successfully on Wednesday 1/6/10 and we produced the show on Saturday 1/9/10 (my birthday!). It should start broadcasting on Cambridge Cable Access really soon, if it hasn't already.

What channel is Cambridge Cable Access, you ask? I have no idea. I don't have cable because I have no time to watch TV. But my roommate Matt does, and so if anybody needs to know and can't look it up E-MAIL ME and I will ask him.

That all said, my open mic will be held monthly on the FIRST WEDNESDAY of each month. The next one is Wednesday 2/3/10 from 7-9 PM at the Amundson Center, 200 Spring St, Cambridge WI 53523.

I have one confirmed performer for that night and I seek 2-3 more to come and perform for the TV show. You get 15 minutes or 3 songs, and it all gets included in the show, along with a link to your web site, MySpace, Facebook, or whatever you want.

Cactus Joe's Open Mic in 2010

Hi All.

We are going to make a heroic effort to get CACTUS JOE'S OPEN MIC going strong in 2010. You can help my attending and/or performing.

We found a great venue: Amundson Community Center, 200 Spring St, Cambridge WI.

It will be held on the FIRST Wednesdays of every month from 7-9 PM, starting Wednesday 1/6/09.

The next one is Wednesday February 3, 2010.

Doors open at 6:30 PM. A small PA for vocals will be available, but you must bring most of your own gear.

ACOUSTIC ARTISTS ONLY for now.

Time slots will be 15 minutes or 3 songs, whichever comes first, and there will be a sign up sheet available on site.

It will be filmed for CABLE ACCESS TV, and edited down to a 30 minute or 60 minute episode, depending on the turnout and performances.

Now that we have our own public venue, it can be TOTALLY AUTONOMOUS and not at the whims and discretions of venue owners, bless their hearts.

I am still doing COUCH CONCERTS at my home, as a separate entity. These can be scheduled any time. Just E-MAIL ME to set one up.

You perform a few songs on my living room couch, then I produce a public YouTube video of it for the world and you can use it as you see fit. It's a sweet deal.

Joe
