Last night at E Street Cafe
David Dewese and I headed down to E Street Cafe in Encinitas last night for their open mic. We had no idea what to expect.
E Street is an awesome coffee shop with a decent-sized room. There’s no PA just a two channel amp. So it’s a bit weird not to be able to check your levels properly. But also fun and slapdash. Very Carter-Admin-practice-in-Todd-K’s-apartment vibey.
The open mic was just the kind I like with a mix of different styles and ages and proficiencies. And a couple of experimental performances. Although that “slapping on chair” solo did seem to go on a little long…
We met a few awesome people. Cleopatra Degher, Justin Froese and a Sierra whose last name I didn’t get. DD really did all the “meeting.” I just enjoyed their songs. We’ll be back to E Street soon.
