Locations in Heidelberg and Mannheim

Hi,

I'd like to introduce a few locations for Jam Sessions and Open Mics:

Café Filsbach
Mannheim
Note: You actually have to contact Wolfgang (ask me for his tel. no) before you can play there, maybe send in a demo or make a reference to your website. If they like it you can play a full concert - without getting paid though. However the café has a very nice atmosphere and the people who run it are very nice, too.

Tikk Theater / Romanischer Keller
Heidelberg
Note: This is a monthly open stage taking place alternately in the Tikk Theater and Romanischer Keller. I love this open stage especially since there are all kinds of artists and the atmosphere is very relaxed! In any case it's better to register first. Contact is Matthias Paul (ask me for his tel no). However you might just come along and ask if you can play. You can also always play after the main part is over!

Kulturfenster
http://www.kulturfenster.de
Heidelberg
Note: In general you always have to ask Jörg Teichert (joerg-teichert(AT)gmx.net) whether you can play. However if you just go there and ask you might get on stage nonetheless.

Of course there are a few Irish Pubs who host open mics. However they are usually crowded with drunk tourists who want to have fun. In the places mentioned above, the audience actually listens!

If anyone knows more places in this area, please feel free to post it here!

See you around,
Annika
