Open Mic With Sedge And Jon.

I am happy. I have just got back from an Open Mic night. That isn't why I'm happy, because I am back from it. I am happy because I went there and enjoyed myself.

As this blog is now read all over the world I am going to give Open Mic it's full title. It is properly called 'Open Mic with Sedge and Jon'.  The Mic bit is pronounced 'mike'

Open Mic With Sedge and Jon.

Anyone can get up and have a go. You get all standards of musicians, some bands play there too. Some people write and recite poetry. The odd comedian has a go. It is a great place to start out on the show business road for the aspiring performer, and I tell you what, a lot of these youngsters are far better than the so called talent on so called talent shows. Which to my mind are full of wannabe's who just wanna be famous.

Most Open Mic performers are there because they love to play, sing, and listen to music. And enjoy a happy time socialising, and enjoying a drink with friends. My favourite acts tonight, were a young chap called Shaun, who has the voice of an angel, and a very beautiful young lady called Sam, who sings wonderfully and has a smile to melt the hardest heart.

Musicians do tend, in my experience to be a happy lot. I would thoroughly recommend an Open Mic night, if you want to hear the best music, and it isn't expensive either. Next time you see an Open Mic event advertised, why not go along and have a good time. Even if it is just to listen.

There are so many pubs and bars closing these days. Live music can help to stop this happening. But they need to be supported.

I am off now. I am going to make myself a toasted bacon sandwich. It is hungry work singing and playing my guitar.

In my case too, I always have to fight off the women. There is something about me that drives them to lose their inhibitions. I had a lot of knickers thrown at me tonight. That isn't too much of a problem. I shall auction them off for charity. I like to help where I can. Although there are a couple of silk pairs with rather nice lace edging I might keep.

Just to remind you, it is 'Open Mic with Sedge and Jon'. It is an odd name isn't it, but that really is his name, Jon. You can find them on facebook. And as I say, now that this blog is read all over the world they will be famous. In a nice way that is. Sedge and Jon are not wannabe's. Well...

Actually I think I shall have an egg with that bacon sandwich too. If I eat it slowly the indigestion shouldn't be too bad.
