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 or performer.

**The performer application window closes on or near to Monday 17 March (approximately three 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 one week before the event.

Thanks for your interest in the Community Open Mic. We look forward to seeing you there!

Hi @Richard_close2u I would like a performer slot please. Will be UTC-7 in April.

Will likely be the full DyeV crew, but Dan and I will perform as a duo if someone ends up not being able to make it.

Put me down for a song, maestro :wink:

If there’s room, I’d be interested in performing one or two songs.

Should be UTC -5 by then unless the state government actually passes a bill introduced to disregard DST, but I highly doubt that will take effect this year. :slight_smile:

I’m so upset I had to miss the last one! I would love an audience seat please!

I would like to perform, this time with better camera and sound, but as I did two in a row, I’m happy to make some space for other newcomers. This time, there seems to be more interest in performer seats than on the last one!
UTC+2

Everyone with winter-/summertime should note that the change will be made between now and the open mic
