Open mic sessions suspended

The people of the Sappho cafe are in some rough waters at the moment. Let's hope they come out well!
Because the bar is closed, we have no open mic sessions at the moment. We are trying to find another venue who is willing to temporarily host our weekly Tuesday open mic sessions! If you have any ideas, let us know.

Thanksgiving live at cafe Sappho

On Wednesday the 10th of May, US singer-songwriter Thanksgiving will play at cafe Sappho. If you're into freakfolk - I hate that term - you can't miss it! Doors open at 8 PM, show from 8.30 to 9.30. Be there in time or you'll only hear the last brilliant notes fade away... Entry fee is only 2 euros.
Address: Vijzelstraat 103, Amsterdam.

Thanksgiving has played at Sappho before, together with John Vanderslice - who this year couldn't make it because he was tied into a tour with Death Cab For Cutie. This time Thanksgiving will be the headliner. Who knows, next year Paradiso?
Adrian Orange - the person behind the alias Thanksgiving - has worked extensively with the Microphones.Mount Eerie, which culminated in a double-album with The Microphones. I'm afraid I sent out an emailing with the name Mt Zion, which of course is a better name, but it is of course Mt Eerie... ;)
Adrian lives in Portland, Oregon but I think he's always on tour.
