A new featured artist every week

"The Starry Plough has welcomed Tuesday open mic crowds for 13 years as of 2011. One of the most characteristically 'bay area' of all the open mics, in 1996 The Plough earned the prestigious title, 'the best open mic in the bay area' and has been keeping the fires lit ever since.

There is a feature at 10.30pm who plays for 20 mins - the feature is often the performer with the best crowd response from the previous week. There is trivia to win a free beer (free beer!) between acts for correct or humorous answers.

Very popular and welcoming, this playful open mic is not for the faint of heart or short of patience. In the 90's I used to head down to the Plough every Tuesday. It remains one of the most eclectic and enthusiastic open mic experiences in the bay area.

2007 was the 35th anniversary of The Plough and the 7th of which Joan Pez has been at the helm of the open mic night. The pub has just finishing renovations and the Irish republican decorations are back up on the walls!" BayAreaOpenMics.com
