A key new entertainer platform and outlet will be Kip's Live, an informal open mic in Kip's Irish Pub located within the Marriott Hotel. This will run Friday from 8PM to 1 AM and then Saturday from 2PM to 6PM and again from 8PM to 1 AM.

The sets will be divided into a 20-minute set and a 30-minute set within each hour, allowing for a 5-minute emcee and setup time between sets. This odd set timing has been designed to allow for some different impromptu acts that have a short list but would like some mic time.

The set up will be a simple, single mic setup with the sound being provided by Dave Tousley.

There are 28 slots available. If you have interest or a unique idea or just want the chance to get together with one of your other band peers that you have always want to sing and play with, the Kip's Live Open Mic may be the stage for you. To sign up to perform, contact: Earl Jarosh at 612-868-1313.
