Toast & Jam Open Mic
Mon. Feb 18 to Mon. Mar 25
Mondays (2/18 - 3/25, 2013)
Get ready to lose those winter blues! Toast &
Jam, now in its 14th year. This jazz-jammin',
blues-rockin', poetry-reading coffeehouse event
is back by popular demand and continues till
March 25.

Singer-songwriter, Dale Campbell hosts the 6
week series of open mic entertainment which is
open to all singers, musicians, poets, actors,
dancers, comics and performance artists.
Campbell's calling card boasts a long history of
open mics and he can be heard regularly on WJJL
1440AM, "Just Me and the Dog" and "Dale
Campbell - All About Town".

Performers sign up as they arrive, and play on a
first-come, first-served basis. Most of the people
who perform at open mics are not professionals.
They do it for the love of it, and part of the fun
for the audience is never knowing what to
expect! "It's a great atmosphere." says Campbell.
"By the end of the night, it feels like a sing-along
at a friend's house. Some performers are really
good, others are just there to have fun. And
everyone LOVES the great food at the Brickyard!".

Highlights from Toast & Jam are featured
throughout the year on Lockport Community TV.
Performers are invited to take advantage of this
unique opportunity to enjoy a moment in the
spotlight.

Toast & Jam is presented by Lewiston Council on
the Arts and sponsored by Brickyard Pub & BBQ,
Lockport Community TV (LCTV), Cataract
Printing, Lewiston Music and Vic's Woodshed
Music.
