The Club Cafe in the Southside hosts an open mic every Monday night for artists in the more folk/acoustic side of the rock genre. Last Monday, Mike went to check it out and reported some good musicians and songs to match. Unfortunately, I am unable to check it out myself because the venue is 21 and over.
The open mic is hosted by the group, Acousticafe, and from what I can tell, they are fairly active in Pittsburgh's music scene. Their website is worth checking out, and I hope to find out more about the group, because I have either met or seen live several of the artists involved with it. My understanding of Acousticafe is limited though so if anyone knows more, please help me out.
Tomorrow night, Mike is going down to the Club Cafe as a lone Broke in order to perform a few songs. From what I know about the venue thus far, I'm hoping it will be a good match for the Brokes type of music. Although they have the ability to play high-energy live shows, the single acoustic guitar sound works well for them, too...so it should be a good performance and something worth attending if you like the "bar/cafe with music" atmosphere.

I feel like you have experience writing music reviews. Your blog definitely has that kind of tone. I like it. It makes it seem legitimate and kind of professional.
