Thursday night is “Open Mic” night at the Coffee Garden in the Curtis Park area. I was there to see some entertainment last night and saw about 7 or 8 (or was it 9) local people doing their musical thing. There was a guy with a guitar singing folk songs, a woman singing John Lennon and John Mayer, two guys on guitar and conga drum who traded lead roles, a guy playing the harmonica, another young girl singing a couple original songs about someone stealing her boyfriend, an older guy doing a nice version of Elton John’s “Your Song”, and maybe one or two others.

They have this event every Thursday night, so go check it out. It was pretty entertaining. And it’s a really nice coffee place too. Free wi-fi, large indoor seating area, and large comfortable garden area in back, see you there…
