Stories, visits, and reflections from the Bay Area's open mic community.
A visit to the Thursday open mic at Cameron's Pub and Restaurant in Half Moon Bay — a pub, restaurant, and bed and breakfast venue with eclectic anglophile pub decor and a claim to being the longest-running musical open mic in the bay area.
A visit to the Monday open mic at Vinnie's Bar and Grill in Concord — a bar and concert venue with a house rock band and a vibrant community of local creatives.
A visit to the Wednesday Acoustic open mic listening room at Pinot's Palette in Livermore — a wine-and-paint venue with a listening room vibe, a studio-quality house band, and a warm community of local players.
