Acoustic Open Stage Thursday! Music, Poetry, Spoken Word

Looking for a intimate environment to share your music or poetry? Our Open Stage night is completely acoustic, no mics or amps, and lots of fun whether you wish to play or present, or simply enjoy the evening as part of the audience. $10 admission includes your beverage! We are a Covid-safer venue, and KN95/N95 masks required and available at Fidd's at no charge. Doors will open at 5:30pm, and we start playing at 6:30pm. We do a one-song rotation and a time limit of no more than 4 minutes per turn. Depending on the number of performers, we often do four or even more rounds in the evening, so it's always a nice variety of music, poetry, spoken word, and storytelling. You are welcome here, and this is a great place to share a new song, or try a poem, or do a spoken word piece - there is so much beauty out there, come and share yours with an interested and supportive group of artists and appreciators who truly listen! Did we mention we have a nice Yamaha electric 88-key piano too for you to play?
We recommend arriving before 6:29pm (if you are a musician, that will get you in on the first rotation, and if you just want to enjoy the music, you'll be there from the start!). And if you can't be there early, come on by when you can, and we will get you into the rotation.
We remain open to live events while keeping the safety of our audience and our performers in mind as our primary concern. KN95 or N95 masks are required to be worn properly while in the room. Each performer may choose to remove their mask while on stage for their turns.
We'll have fabulously strong brewed coffee, hot water for a variety of teas, cold water, and pop available for you to enjoy, just keep your mask on except while taking a sip, then get it back into place - we want to keep aerosols down in the room. We usually have one of the doors slightly open to improve ventilation and fresh air flow, so dress for the desert evening climate (we do try to keep it relatively comfortable inside)!
Found someone you'd like to connect with and share music? Cool! Just chat outside on the lighted patio area-sound does carry inside! Thank you for having fun with us as we continue to celebrate our 37th Anniversary Year of 2024!
