This is really an extension of Godwin Ave.

On March 2nd, we had our first Open Mic at the new location.  Everyone seemed to agree that it was a great little venue.  We had 8 acts that first night with some new performers.

I am hoping to have many of the regulars at the next Open Mic.  It starts at 7pm and ends at 10pm.

Every Wednesday, Deb and Ed, the owners of the Coffee Beanery have an open mic/jam.  If you cannot make the UMGF and Friends Tuesday,... ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (lamplighter66) http://theunofficialmartinguitarforum.yuku.com/topic/98747 Sat, 06 Mar 2010 05:56:17 PST http://theunofficialmartinguitarforum.yuku.com/topic/98733/t/Acoustic-open-mic-in-Dallas.html ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (stratrat) http://theunofficialmartinguitarforum.yuku.com/topic/98733 Fri, 05 Mar 2010 22:39:29 PST http://theunofficialmartinguitarforum.yuku.com/topic/98675/t/Open-Stage-in-Morristown-NJ-March-12th-.html
The Minstrel is the weekly concert series of The Folk Project of northern NJ. We've been presenting high quality acoustic concerts weekly for over thirty years. In fact, several Martin signature artists have headlined our shows.

Once a month we forgo the professional, paid talent and open our stage to anyone and everyone that is of a mind to make some music. We attract performers ranging from 6 year old beginning guitar students to seasoned semi professional performers hoping to get booked as an opening act for our regular concerts as well as every level in between.

For a little over a year now I have had the pleasure of playing the part of host/mc for one of the most remarkable open stages around.

We work hard to create a safe, nurturing all inclusive atmosphere for the novice performer. You can get up on our stage and flat out bomb and we will... ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (ScooterD35) http://theunofficialmartinguitarforum.yuku.com/topic/98675 Thu, 04 Mar 2010 23:37:37 PST http://theunofficialmartinguitarforum.yuku.com/topic/98672/t/A-magical-musical-weekend-in-Morristown-NJ-March-5-7-.html

Internationally renowned guitarist and luthier Wayne Henderson will be performing at a rare house concert in NYC.

Henderson, who has been awarded a National Heritage Fellowship, has made guitars for Eric Clapton, Doc Watson, Tommy Emmanuel, and Gillian Welch, among others, and was the subject of _Clapton's Guitar: Watching Wayne Henderson Build the Perfect Instrument._
Wayne has played at Carnegie Hall, The White House, A Prairie Home Companion, and the Rugby Rescue Squad Pot Luck Dinner (in his hometown of Rugby, Virginia, population 7). He plays in a unique and intricate old-time style that will delight guitar geeks and casual music lovers alike. He also tells very funny stories. He will be joined by piano great Jeff Little.

Skipping Carnegie Hall this time, Wayne Henderson will be playing a special intimate concert at the home of Jesse Sheidlower, at 12 Beekman Place #4C in Manhattan... ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (the jest) http://theunofficialmartinguitarforum.yuku.com/topic/98554 Tue, 02 Mar 2010 21:58:05 PST http://theunofficialmartinguitarforum.yuku.com/topic/98293/t/Freddy-s-CANCELLED-for-tomorrow.html
I have acute tendonitis in my heel and must put it to bed all weekend.

NO FREDDY'S for MARCH

Next one will be September - either at Freddy's or another venue should Freddy's be gone.
