Week 7: Art Show

For this week's art show, I went to a "open mic" night at this restaurant / bar down-town off of state street. Normally I'm not one to go these kinds of shows, considering it usually ends up being a fairly sad display of half-decent, half-shitty bands and solo artists that shouldn't quite be performing yet, but my buddy, sadly in one of the categories, not sugar coating it ( and because of this, ill just call him Frank), was performing for the first time. I went with him to show some support, and actually had a good time. He writes his own stuff, usually just him and his acoustic guitar and a mic, but for this occasion,  his roommate, a fairly skilled drummer, accompanied him on a small makeshift set. Although the music may have not been that amazing or anything, the vibes in the room were awesome. Everyone seemed to be there supporting friends, so they were all super into the show, cheering too much, never too little, which seemed to give the performers, including "Frank", a lot of confidence. hats off to "Frank" for getting up on stage and doing his thing!
