The Blues Party is still going strong and has been moved to the third Wednesday of every month.

Chippers Classic Lanes has our Blues Party the second Wednesdays of the month. All performers get free food for playing. Free refills on sodas too. This is the first bowling alley I've been to the has Live music since Sonesta Lanes in Thornton in 1992. Good place to play and the bowlers love it.

Comment from Howard Cunniffe:

This is a great Open Mic to go to. Everybody gets to play for 20 minutes. Both cover songs and originals are welcomed. Now I have this address on North College Ave. Now yes the address is correct, but it's in the same building as The Northern Hotel. The Corner Slice is right around the corner on Walnut St. 3 doors down from Starbucks Coffee.

Comment from Howard Cunniffe:

This is a singers, song writers Open Mic. What they do here is different then what you see in most Open Mics. All music has to be original music.(songs you wrote your self ) Everybody gets to play 3 songs but you are on stage with 4 other people. When you play one song, they go to the person next to you. When that person is done then they go to next person and so on. When the rotation is gone around, then you get to play your next song. I guess they do something like this in Nashville. Plus all singers must bring their own microphone. When the uploader is fixed, I will add more photos.

Comment from Howard Cunniffe:

This Open Mic is still going strong People are still coming in to perform. They do have a different food truck. They serve food but not drinks. But you can still get drinks at the bar.

Comment from Anonymous:

Yes…

Comment from Doug Strachan:

Is this still happening, as of March 2023?

Comment from Howard Cunniffe:

I finally got to come to this Open Mic. I was totally impressed how it went. All the musicians were great. Now I will say this. Yes they have a sign up board as you are entering the bar. Everybody starts signing up at 5:30. Get first in line because they only have 9 spots. They have a food truck. Musicians who play that night get a 2 for 1 deal. Buy 1 sandwich, get the second free. Now back to the Open Mic. You can play by yourself or play with other Jammers. All performers get a 20 minute set. This was the third time I got to meet Denny. He's a cool guy and a great musician. Yes I plan on coming back.

Comment from Dennis Driscoll:

This is the place formerly known as Al's Canyon Grill. In the last 2 years it's gone through some remodeling. Looks totally different from back in the day. Open Mic is every Wednesday at 7pm and goes until 9pm.Everybody plays about 5 songs. There were 2 people that didn't get to perform because towels caught fire in the kitchen. Fire was put out and nobody got hurt.

Open Mic is still going strong here at The East End Ali House. Sometimes if there is time some of us get to go up and have a little Blues Jam. Bands are still welcome to play.

Comment from Howard Cunniffe:

New ownership has takin' over The East End Ali House. Open Mic now starts at 6pm. The reason why is so that anybody under the age of 21 can perform. All minors must be out at 7pm.

Comment from Howard Cunniffe:

Comment from Howard Cunniffe:

This Open Mic is still going strong. More and more musicians keep coming in to perform. They have changed a couple of things lately. Solo performers start playing at 7pm. Bands come up to perform at 9pm.Everybody gets to play 4 songs.

Comment from Howard Cunniffe:

Hi Farkle. Sign up is at 6:30 and the show starts at 7:00.

Comment from Farkle:

Would help if the listing told us what time sign up is and what time the show starts, thanks.

Comment from Howard Cunniffe:

I'm sure some of you may remember when this place used to be The Boar and Bull. I hosted an Open Mic there one night a few years back. It's now a bar and it's a way better place to play. Everybody gets to play 5 songs.It's for indivisual players and for bands too. If your band is looking for a gig. Bring them here for audition.They are always looking for new talent.
