It's open mic day on RADIOGRAHAM! No, I'm not turning over the microphone to anyone who just wanders in off the street. Instead, I'll be talking about the phenomenon of the musical open mic.
I'm sure you've been to one or two in your day - picture some aging hippie gently introducing a college kid with a guitar, a dream, and the tab to Semi Charmed Life printed off the internet.
More than a few great bands got their start playing open mics, and I think it's a concept that doesn't get enough love. I know theres a few musicians out there, and I want your open mic stories!
And to everyone, musician or not, whats the best performance you've ever seen at an open mic? And the worst?
