Open Mic Recap @ the GSP

The GSP open mic hasn’t been this good in a long time. Adrien drove up with me to Grape Street for the first time and she sounded amazing as usual. Jeremy Hollis’s song about making out with “two chicks at one time” had a great vibe to go along with the material. Leroy Montana must be seen to be believed. Take Dennis Leary, raise him by wolves, and lock him in a barn until he can play guitar. That’s Leroy Montana. The night’s featured artist Mutlu did a great Prince cover along with his G-Loveish originals. He’s so easy to listen to. Heather G did a couple of really interesting songs with her drum machine backing her up. Honestly, there were so many good performers I nearly stayed the whole time. If you weren’t there you missed out on a great night.

I played “I Hope I Die on the Moon” and “All My Dreams are in Cartoon.” If getting in late wasn’t tough enough on my night’s sleep the noise my air conditioner started making certainly was. In the middle of the night I found myself pounding on it before eventually shutting it off. It has since been fixed so I anticipate some uninterrupted sleep tonight.

Thanks for Coming Out

Thanks to everyone who came out last night. I hope everyone had as good a time as I did. Once again they booked four bands downstairs cutting me off a little early, so for the first time in a while I didn’t play “The Genius of it All” and a few other originals. Next time I’ll have to space my set out a little more. I killed a lot of time buying shots and drinks, too. Jake got some pictures and videos of the night, so I’ll post them up here sometime soon.

Just a reminder about Monday: I’m going to be the featured artist at the Living Room’s open mic at 8:00 – 8:30PM. The Living Room is on the corner of Haddon and Collings Ave. and has been getting some great performers lately. Since it’s a coffee house it’s open for all ages, too. See you there.
