Title: Listings for live open music events in the east midlands
Post by: Davicker on January 24, 2012, 04:45:50 PM: Hi,

I’d just like to let you know about a brand new local website that my friend has launched, www.opensessions.co.uk (http://www.opensessions.co.uk). It provides an up-to-date list of open music sessions to help local performers find events at which to perform, and lovers of live music to find (often free) music events. This ‘not for profit’ site is administered by a small group of enthusiastic amateur local musicians.

Please have a look at the site… If you have any information about an ‘open music’ event that is not listed, then please get in touch.

I had spoke to someone at the 'Three Merry Lads' a couple of weeks ago... I'm afraid their acoustic night has been postponed until they find someone to host it!

Just read your earlier post and realised who you are, so yes, you are correct about who I am... If that makes any sense at all! :-D

Hope you are keeping well.

Just a quick line to say there's a new blog post at www.opensessions.co.uk (http://www.opensessions.co.uk)... Some local sessions have been postponed, others looking for hosts and rumours of a new session near Alfreton!
