Your hosts seek to increase opportunities for sharing and discovery. Thus we have compiled a list of 12 expectations for our performers. Stay with us a while longer to explore with these in mind:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Stage time is 6PM to 10PM. Arrive by 5:30 to make the early set. If we don\u2019t get to everyone by 10PM &#8211; sorry.<\/li><li>Plan no more than 2 songs and possibly just one depending on attendance. The MC will let you know.\u00a0<\/li><li>Keep it PG before 8PM &#8211; under 21 and anyone with strict bed time will be prioritized to the first set (see the MC)<\/li><li>Sign Up order is not necessarily the order we will call you in &#8211; some acts may be prioritized<\/li><li>Only 1 sign up list and 1 slot per performer\/group (Sorry, no more performing in first set and second set)<\/li><li>The Drake is a not-for-profit joint &#8211; consider leaving a donation at the door<\/li><li>Be kind &#8211; give performers your attention &amp; try to stay for the entire show<\/li><li>Be generous to our sound man. Let the MC know any special requirements before you get called and be careful with the equipment<\/li><li>Be kind to your bartenders &#8211; have a drink &#8211; leave a tip<\/li><li>Hungry? Get some food and bring it back in &#8211; we like that<\/li><li>Try new and different things.\u00a0<\/li><li>Be open to new and different things.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Orion and I are having a fabulous time keeping this show alive. Our community is amazing, and we know there is so much more to come. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See you in August!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-Cpt.Jack<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Explore, Sojourn and Discover Salutations Friends, New truths present themselves in the month of August.
