Open Mic Night At
The Baggot Inn

Monday, March 3


Our first ever Open Mic Night since the re-opening of the NY Office in 2005 will be held at the Baggot Inn on March 3, 2008! The Open Mic Night, besides being fun and a great way to share your music with others, will serve as a pre-cursor to playing the Singer-Songwriter Showcase when slots become available.

This is a great way to get involved in our music community. The signup sheet at the Baggot doesn't come out until 7 p.m., but people start showing up around 6 p.m. The show usually starts around 8pm. Call Mark Saxon, East Coast Project Manager with any questions at 212 768 7902 or write ny@songwritersguild.com. We look forward to seeing you! More details on signing up for the event in a future newsletter, but if you’re interested in playing, keep the night open! The Baggot Inn is located at 82 West 3rd Street, between Sullivan and Thompson Streets. Their telephone number is (212) 477-0622.
