GG Tanaka's Open Mic Reunion Show! February 25, 2012
Alameda, California
You're invited to a very special night of music. It case you're not aware, I used to run a lot of open mics (John Patrick's, the Uptown Club, Mcgrath's, and Beckett's in Berkeley).
During that time I've had the honor of meeting MANY great musicians and great people. I mis...s those days, however, on Saturday February 25th at the Italian American Hall in Alameda from 7pm to whenever... I will be having an Open mic reunion show.
Lots of artists have already confirmed like...

I'm sure more will show and play. It looks like an All star lineup.
It's starts a 7pm. FREE admission! Please give me call if you would like to reserve a place on the list. You can also sit in with someone, if they're cool with it. It's a very fun atmosphere with great music all night. So if you're not busy and need something to do...stop by by, have a drink, and listen to some of the best musician in the Bay area. Hope to see you there!!! CHEERS! -jason(GG Tanaka)

@ Mike...It's at the Italian American Hall in Alameda. @ Bridget... It's gonna be an open mic style show. About 3 songs each, the list will be made in advance. There's a lot confirmed players so far(18 or so). You would need to get a h...old of me to reserve a spot, or take your chances the night of. There will be jams I'm sure where various combinations will play. So no one would be left out. It's more of a show with an open mic feel. Lots of variety. Free admission, there will be drinks and snacks to munch on. Give me a call if you need more details.

from Dave Gursom - "Saturday night in Alameda, a reunion of the McGrath's and Beckett's open mics!! Both were hosted by GG Tanaka, and both were truly wonderful scenes of music and community.
The reunion is taking place at the Italian American Hall in Alameda, (2712 Encinal) at 7pm, and it's free! There are a TON of great performers, and I'll get to share the stage with a bunch of them, so I'm really excited."
