"LIVE
AT THE PURPLE ONION" Open Mic Announced
Kitchenette
Productions presents two new musical events ... a new ongoing open
mic, "LIVE AT THE PURPLE ONION" and "NEW STARS OF THE PURPLE ONION,"
a month of showcase performances, both events held at the renowned
PURPLE ONION (240 Columbus Avenue, San Francisco, CA - 415-956-1653).
LIVE kicks-off on Monday, June 14th from 7:00 to 10:00 pm and will
continue every Monday thereafter. Doors open at 6:30pm for sign up.
And for a $5 cash-at-the-door cover, you get a nibble of an Italian
antipasto.
Hosted by
Kitchenettes Lua Hadar and Linda Kosut, in collaboration with musical
director Barry Lloyd, this is an open mic "with a cherry on top."
The regular open mic, LIVE AT THE PURPLE ONION, will run for approximately
2 to 3 months. Now here's the "cherry" - during the open mic months,
the hosts will invite select singers to perform solo sets in the showcase,
"The New Stars of The Purple Onion."
Starting
September 13th (skipping Labor Day Monday), and through the end of
September, 3 or 4 singers selected from the open mic nights will perform
on a Monday showcase night. A total of from 9 to 12 singers will be
September's showcase performers. And in October, the open mic begins
again every Monday for several months, leading to another showcase
month in December.
All singers
are invited and asked to bring music in their key. Singers should
be prepared for 2 songs each and so that everyone who signs up has
a chance to sing on the stage of The Purple Onion, singers will be
performing one song at a time. If there is time at the end of the
list and before the evening concludes, then singers will be called
up again from the top of the list.
The Purple
Onion is owned by Caffe Macaroni Sciue Sciue, upstairs and next-door
at 124 Columbus. The Purple Onion serves wine, beer and specialty
wine drinks. There will also be a reasonably priced bar menu available
downstairs at The Purple Onion. Or you wish to have dinner before
or after the open mic, please call Caffe Macaroni at 415-217-8400
for reservations.
