OPEN MIC GUIDELINES
Please read the following:
Our goal for the Open Mic evenings is to provide an outlet for musicians within the community to come together and share in talent. Whether it’s playing a guitar instrumental or doing just vocals on a karaoke base. We encourage all levels of performers, from novice to expert, to sharpen their skills in front of an audience. This is a family event and we ask that you keep your songs free of sexual vulgarity. Please note you will be unplugged if you cannot abide by these guidelines.
- Performances begin at 19:00. Closing time is 23:00.
- Time slots are open now, sign up through The Handle Bar contact details:
info@thehandlebar.com.na or 081 469 3166. Please state your name and songs you will be performing. - Each time slot is 15 minutes total, so that may include 3-4 songs.
- We will provide some equipment (sound board, speakers, mics, cables, electric guitars, drums, backtracks). To make sure what you need is on hand, plan on bringing what you will need.
- When you are next, be ready. Instruments out, tuned up, ready to take the stage.
- Perform material you are comfortable with. We don’t expect perfection, but its always best to be as prepared as you can be.
- BE CONSIDERATE OF THE OTHER PERFORMERS. Please be quiet and show respect for the performers on stage. Do not play instruments while performers are on stage. Applaud for everyone.
- Please stay for the performers after your time slot. They enjoyed your set, stay and enjoy theirs as well.
- Be respectful to the venue and the equipment, as if it were your own.
- Thanks for being a part of this great opportunity!
