A Little OMN

The Living Room in Stroudsburg, PA presented another installment of their weekly Open Mic Nite Series on Sunday July 8th. As usual, I arrived about 2 hours late. However, what was unusual was there were hardly anyone present when I did arrive. This may have been, as many speculated, due to many factors. One could have been due to the fact The Living Room held a huge Artists’ Reception the night before, The 4th of July holiday and the heat wave inspired many to take a nap, and/or there were some concerts going on during the night. In any case, like I said, hardly anyone was there.

When I arrived, Al Shivers was sharing some comedy and Brian Marx of Rotten Lucky played some drums as did Steve Truglio.  At one point, Steve and Brian played together. And, while I don’t know what occurred before I arrived, that was about it.
