We had some very good music Friday night, a surprising 29 member audience, and decent snack bar sales. Peter Guiffra attended and said a few words, and Greg Pason was there helping and being a good friend. O Face, Use Big Words, Daisy Chainz and No Noise were all great, and we raised over $40 […]
Edegmont Park Shelter House. Good turnout, and we heard some great music. The new staff was aided by Gillian and Alexis who managed to make it back home for yet another Serendipity Café. I forgot quite a few things this time, making it worthwhile to return for them. The kids from Stephen St were great, […]
Scarendipity was held on 11/1, Saturday Night, at the Lutherans. The new staff is learning quickly how to set up, and Ben was entertainment head for the first time. Things went well, we made some money. I really liked Vinnie’s new version of Los Huevos, and Leadbeater hit the loudness record at 129.9 dB. Good […]
“Rap’n’dipity was a complete success. 136 paid audience and we let people in free during the last band. Forgot 2 of the stands, but that was quickly remedied. Audience was respectful, staff filled in for Mike (who took his wife to dinner and then came back to help us clean up) . Have to warn […]
Last Serendipity Café of the year, at the Lutherans. A surprisingly large attendance (115) and staff-aided-by-alumni made this a fun Serendipity. “Big Time Woman” (open mic) with Beryl on drums and Matt Arons(sp) on lead guitar. We did extra verses. Finished on time (ish) with plenty of staff for the last mile. Thanks!
Another record attendance, great bands, fun open mic, and a whole bazaar of artists, photographers, Zine producers joined the usual band merch sellers. This caused some discussion at the critique meeting about the extra conversations generated by the artists as a second focus of attention, away from the musicians. However we did manage to put […]
“The Carendipity” fund raiser for SOFIA in cooperation with the NOW club was a great success, we all took pledges, donated money, wore wristbands and helped out a good cause.
Great attendance, great new music, a huge Open Mic, and serveral comments on the quality (good) of our sound expertise made this a successful Serendipity Event.
- This was the Big Rapendipity, with all rap music at the Lutheran Church on Park St.. We SOLD OUT before 9 pm. We felt that this was much more of a party audience than we had planned for, but I think we now know a lot more about setting up and running this kind […]
– With six bands plus open mic, this event was quite lengthy. However the crew at the end was sufficiently numerous that we made light work of it, even with Michael’s bad back. We were sad but proud to host the final performance of “No Noise”, but we hope there may be others. Attendance was […]
