If you joined Mad Swirl Open Mic this past 1st Wednesday of November (aka 11.01.23) at our OC home, Barbara’s Pavillion, then you know that once again whirl’d up the Swirl and got the Mad mic opened for all you Mad ones out there!
This month we celebrated 19 YEARS of swirling up open mic madness! It has been quite the journey for us from that Fall day back in 2004. We ventured from Absinthe Lounge to The Underpass to City Tavern to the Regal Room to Top Ten Records to COVID-virtual and celebrated last night’s milestone at Barbara’s Pavillion! Thanks to all who indulged us in our trip down memory lane. We look forward to the many more Mad mic memories & moments to come!
