Forgot to mention: there is a really big chance that there will be an open mic like every year, so we heard... So we are not having one on the EINDBAAS night

OR, you COULD still have it anyway, thereby doubling the number of open mics.

The blip open mic night is usually a nice, casual, and pretty long event where lots of people get to play and there isn't a huge time pressure. I think having another open mic at the Eindbass show would just take up a half-hour that could be used for sound check or a full set.

Bry, I know where you are coming from, but if someone is worth listening to for more than 6 minutes, then they should try getting a set. Open mic slots are short because there's always a good chance you'll get "my first LSDJ" and not everyone has the attention span for those kinds of 'surprises.'

I second this! But I would like to see a Jersey/Philly show as mentioned in the Blip thread. :]

Hey there! would anyone be interested in playing a sub heavy bassweight after party? I'm in talks with some folks in brklyn with a large soundsystem to get an after party running. If anyone has any interest in this, please pm me!
We're trying to keep the lineup to dub / 2step / bass music type artists, but anyone with a decent low end who wants the chance to play on a proper system should definitely send me a pm. Thanks!

OR, blipfest could ditch all its acts and just become 3 straight days of open mics. total anarchy!!
fair point about the length of the open mic though - i guess if there's only half an hour for open mic-type activities and they're trying to get the rest of the show on the road, then there'd be substantial time pressure.

true, it's good to avoid situations where an artist is overstaying their welcome, but that's always a risk anyway. it's just that 6 minutes still feels a little too short to me.. 8 mins feels more natural a stretch of time, just enough for two songs if the artists wants to do that.

For a 6 minute (!) set there should be two complete set ups so one guy can get ready while the other is playing. Rapid fire choons!

I've seen local music festivals have a similar setup. Makes sense.
