Open Mic

5-5:45

6 Degrees of Johnny Cash: Every band and their mother´s covers a Cash tune or two, especially now that James Mangold´s biopic Walk the Line was such a huge hit at the box office… but none can belt out the Man in Black´s immortal baritone melodies quite like George AKA Ghost Rider. In fact, believe it or not, George would even give Walk the Line´s Joaquin Phoenix a run for his money. Seriously.

Prometheus io and Nick Baker: Big purple mountains, ocean scenes, and rolling thoughts of a mind searching for the sun combined with the island spirit of Mr. Baker, in search of Pangea communicated through percussion.

1-2am

Michael Garfield: Somewhere between the whirling ecstatics of festival culture and the mad scientists of solo guitar, there is Michael Garfield. A firestorm of thumping strings, cascades of live sampling and delays, and a slow-burning broken-wing crooning.

2:30-4am



Half Moon Ceremony with Tasi: As we move into the 2nd quarter of the moon's cycle, come be a part of a ceremonial prayer-formance with Tasi and many friends of the Soul Mate Bar.

"If I speak with the tongues of Angels, but have not love, it profits me nothing." - Tasi.
