Open Mic nights/Karaoke/Joining Bands?

Hi

Does anyone know of any open mic nights/karaoke or a place where you can find bands to join in Zurich?

I've been in bands back home (UK) and was wondering whether anything similar was available here and wondered where people advertise for singers etc?

Many thanks

Charlyb

If you can travel as far as Luzern (about 55km) there's a jam session at the Roadhouse every Wednesday between about 10.30pm and 2am. I host it once a month and I find there's never enough singers! Come on down...

Hi
Sounds great. I will check this out and let you know of any others. A fellow EF member has also mentioned http://www.mehrspur.ch/ which is a jazz club that has an open mic night on a Wed apparently.

Good luck
Charly

Hey people, I host karaoke nights from time to time and am always looking for new venues. I am in Pickwick pub in Baden on Friday 13th August and Dorfkellar Bar in Einsiedeln Friday 27th August.
20,000 songs to choose from and enthusiastic singers are always welcome!

cheers

john

You should put this in the calendar under the Baden events. The Badeners are always looking for a good excuse to get together.
