great open mic - i think the best in columbus. for meeting accomplished musicians (not just singer/songwriters) this is the place to be.

I can't agree with my fellow posters. I was there this week and found it to be a dark, almost unpleasant bar. The emcee was not at all entertaining. The only redeeming factor was the 2 guys playing and singing. Dusty and Dane? They were quite good. No one seemed particularly interested in the music. I'll go back and see if it changes, but I was not very impressed this first time.

probably the best open mic in columbus, by my reckoning. small venue, with large crowds, considering bar size, and compared to competative open mics. small serious crowd, almost all hardcore music fans. great intimate spot to make a first foray into the cbus open mic scene.

The open mic here is fantastic. The crowd is usually a mix of local talent from a number of different bands that play across columbus. The music is always exciting, not just the same crap you hear at every other bar/open mic in Columbus. I was there a few weeks ago and saw a MC rapping, followed by a performance by a cello player with a guitar player. Always interesting always fun. And cheap drinks.

this is place in credibly out of the way for being more or less downtown. Don't expect to be playing to anyone but the staff.
