Performers

There are fifteen performer slots available with an opportunity to play one or two songs. Please state your wish to be considered for a slot in a reply to this topic and tag (using the @ symbol) richard_close2u. Remember to state your location & UTC time zone.
Performer slots are not allocated on a first-come first-served basis but there is a deadline.
Performer slots are available according to the following criteria.

  • We ask that performers be actively engaged members who embody the positive and supportive pay-it-forward ethos we have long nurtured within the Community.
  • We ask that performers have made an Introductory topic, ideally including some information about their learning path with JustinGuitar.
  • We ask that performers have shared recent audio-video of their playing in the Community Recordings section.*
  • We ask that performers have previously attended Open Mics as an audience member.

The performer application window closes Saturday 26 October @ 1900 UTC (2 weeks before the show) after which a final list of performers will be published. If the number of potential performers exceeds our limit we may need to disappoint some people - although regular performers often express their willingness to step aside and allow newer performers their chance. We do try to give all who express an interest the opportunity to perform.


Audience registration

Getting a seat in the audience is simple. Just reply to this thread stating your wish to attend. The Zoom link will be distributed before the event.

Thanks Richard, I’ll throw my hat into the ring again for consideration please.
@Richard_close2u

I think clocks have gone back by then so this is 8am uk. I forgot initially, just for other performers’ benefit

Thanks Richard. You can count me in to perform a single song. As per usual happy to step aside if the roster is full to give others more deserving an opportunity.

Yes. The times above all account for local daylight saving changes. I think they are all correct.

Pacific region JG people … ROLL UP ROLL UP ROLL UP

This one should be in the sweet spot for many of you.
I hope to see our roster fill up with folk who would normally be in bed at open mic time!

Hi Richard! As usual will happily give up any slot to a Pacific Region Debutant, if there’s room however, I’d play a song or two on an early morning in November! Cheers @Richard_close2u for the organisation and effort!!

I’ll be at UTC +1 I believe!

I believe that’s midnight here in Portland so I think that puts me out of being able to perform or host this time. DyeV is a bit too loud for midnight :laughing:

Could I get an audience seat just in case I’m able to stay up? I can’t guarantee I won’t be asleep :laughing: but if I can make it I will :+1:

@Richard_close2u We would like to perform one song. Florida should be at UTC-5 by then. Thanks!

Mark, Did you see it’s 3AM our time?

Thanks, I did not. I responded on my phone from a restaurant and didn’t look closely. @Richard_close2u we take it back as we will be fast asleep. :thinking:

Woah, that’s 6pm here in sunny Queensland. A surprise!

Put me down for a performer slot please @Richard_close2u. I’m not sure if we have any IRL social events that evening yet, so hopefully it all comes together!

@nzmetal @sclay You guys might be interested in performing?
