Just finished playing two sets on Friday Mar. 2nd  at our new favorite watering hole, "Gracie's Cafe" in Elkton MD.   http://openmikes.org/listings/graciescafe  We discovered the open mic location on openmikes.org and glad we did.  This place is sooo laid back! Couches and big comfy chairs through out the room.  Table and chairs are set-up so that you can see the performers on the stage.   They provide mics, amps etc. so we don't need to haul any gear accept my guitar.  A small $3.00 cover charge is requested but they in turn give you "3 Gracie Dollars" to buy soda, water, tea or SWEETS!  Glenn and Dave are so nice and accommodating.  You can tell they put a lot of time and thought into getting this open mic stage setting right and it shows.   I think we might even be able to "headline" in the future.. Oh yeah...Glenn runs a "quiz" show during the set breaks and it's a hoot hearing everyone call out answers.  Can't wait to visit them again.
