Phicksation @ yoR Open Mic

yoR Junction Open Mic – Oct 10

Once again, I have been asked to host the open mic at the Magic Oven on Keele in The Junction. Bring your music, your rants, your poetry, your comedy, or just your eyes and ears for a feast. We have the entire upstairs just for us, with a stage and a killer sound system set up by our organizer yoR himself. Great food and local draft if you have a hunger or thirst.

We will also be recording, so if you come back in two weeks you can get a copy for whatever use you may want. And, as always, we’ll be going out live over StreetJelly, so catch us there if you can’t in person. That’s http://www.streetjelly.com and check the scheduler for YorStuff……

I have been asked again to host the Yor Magic Open Mic at the Magic Oven on Keele in The Junction on Saturday, March 7th, from 2 – 6PM.

This has turned into quite the event, with more people trying to sign up than we have time for and more people gathering to listen than we have chairs for.

This week I’ll be accompanied by my good buddy Neil Kitagawa on bass and sax for my small opening bit, and possibly some guitar playing friends for a bit of a jam. After that – we’ve has so many talented performers – musicians, comics, poets, storytellers … I expect it will be quite  the afternoon.
