CAFE MUSE

I swung by the Cafe Muse for their monday night open mic last night and was reminded just what a great level of talent they have there on a consistent basis. I saw my friend Wayne there who is always great and met two other outstanding musician/songwriters: Aaron Beaumont and Clare Means. They both have myspace so look them up!
I started off by playing a track called "Cries at Night" off a record I did with my old Band Double Stamp called "Hand Tighten Only." Despite the guitar cutting in and out due to a bad cord, it seemed everyone enjoyed it. Also played a new song called "The Wrong Girl" which I'm really excited about. As you may imagine, it's about liking the wrong kind of girl . . . the kind of girl that's no good for you. I have played it live a few times now and it always gets good reactions.
I also really like The Vermont Restaurant open mic on monday nights so I will have to start switching off. The verdict: monday night is a good night for open mics in LA.
