Open mic nights at the Winchester Gate - 2nd Wednesday of the month

Wed, 01 Sep 2010 12:00:00 GMT

Thanks to Pete Leonard for contacting us with details of a monthly open mic night to be held at the Winchester Gate every second Wednesday. Come along and play a fifteen minute acoustic set, solo or with band-mates, hosted by alternative blues genius Peter Leonard and 'teenage grandad' Matt Britton. 'A great stage to begin yer world domination; your first steps into public performance, unleashing your genius compositions or playing your favourite cover versions. It's also a great stage for a pre-gig warm-up or just come along, listen to top turns and drink beer!'.
