Anyone who is interested in playing jazz or blues at an open mike situation should come to The Y Not on the 4th August for the Derek Mosedale Memorial Bash. Particularly interested in trad players. All proceeds go to Oxfam.

In the image of God? You must be joking!
I'm off to see the Jacques Loussier Trio on Monday. If he's got a day off on the 4th, I'll be sure to send him up on the Inverness-Thurso train.

Well some of our stuff could be described as Jazz Blues, but at the risk of sounding ignorant what and where is the Y and... open mic situation?

Patience is the ability to put up with someone you'd like to put down.
Is that in the car park then Chobbers? (Ooops sorry!!!)
The Y Not (dreadful name it has to be said) used to be called the "Redwood" ajoined at the hip to the "Grove Lounge Bar".
All the world's a stage and we are merely players . . . . .

hmm i like jazz very much and blues hmm hmm
well you won't need to bring any PA & TBH it's an open mike that is only a part of a programme that includes 2 bands & CD archives of Dereks past bands. So you're only talking about 2 songs pending on who comes up from the audience. I know of a few that are talking about it
the gig starting at nine will no doubt end at 12:45-1am & going on a rough guide I'd reckon that the open mike set will be approximately 45mins-1hour
