Open Mic Diaries

Every so often you will see new "Open Mic Diaries" in here. They are podcasts ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Podcast ) created courtesy of Calvin Buckles ( pictured above right, http://calvinbulckles.com ) at a variety of venues when Noel and Calvin go out for their (usually) weekly open mic shows. Many of these are HUGE so we recommend that you only download them if you have a high speed internet ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_speed_internet ) connection. These podcasts consist of the contributions of local area musicians, not just Calvin and Noel so be prepared for the WHOLE experience.

Please remember that this whole thing is only available with the support of the local Denver live music scene. Without local venues and Denver area musicians "Open Mics" would be a thing of the past. It starts with venues like LDV ( http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=la+dolce+vita+arvada ) and Mile High Coffee http://www.milehighcoffee.com/ .
