JayceLand's Weekly Rochester Events #152: Emma's Huddled Masses

Dang ... another week, another chit-chat. Hmm. I'm sure you're all bored hearing about all the crap I do and make seem like it's much better than it is. I guess I could be talking about the war, or terrorists. I don't know ... I just don't feel up to it. This writer's block thing really sucks ...

And this week, just because I can, I'll let it win. Here's what's up this week:

Not ready for mainstream Daily Perks (389 Gregory St.) is hosting an Acoustic Open Jam from 8 to 10. For this one, there's no microphones and it's designed to be more of a true jam.

Not ready for mainstream Open Jar Jam at The Bug Jar (219 Monroe Ave.) tonight and every Sunday.

Just like on Thursdays, you can see/do/avoid Karaoke with Sugar Bear at Drinks by Mary Dawn (535 S. Clinton) starting around 9.

Well it's been about 7 months now and finally Karaoke with Sugar Bear is back at The Blue Room (293 Alexander St.) One of these days I'll have to stop by to see if it's really true.

First Day of Hanukkah

Tonight at The Bug Jar (219 Monroe Ave.) is Love As Laughter starting around 8 or 9 or 10 or so.

Checked personally by Jayce Trivia Quiz continues at The Old Toad (277 Alexander St.) My interest is waning, but I keep going and we still haven't won--whether we have a few people or a whole bunch.. We've been within a couple questions of winning, but so has everyone else. It all gets started a little after 9.

If you're interested, Johnny's Smoke Free Bar (1382 Culver Rd.) will have a DJ playing Barenaked Ladies tunes.

Not ready for mainstream As of a few months ago, Java's (16 Gibb Street) still has open mic poetry downstairs starting around 9:30.

Not ready for mainstream Tonight from 8 to 10 is an interesting "new-material-only" Open-Mic Comedy Night at Daily Perks (389 Gregory St.) I think they're making it into a workshop type of environment.
