[removed at request of Red Bank Music Community](Recently, Alex Siniari and I traveled an hour and a half up to Red Bank, NJ for an open mic. It was quite the road trip! You can read the side-notes and ramblings from it in this post: Some rambling before the Red Bank Music Community post)
The Red Bank Music Community is a group located in Red Bank. NJ. This is one of my favorite open mics I’ve been to yet. You can see how dedicated these guys are on their MySpace page:
“The Red Bank Music Community is exactly what it sounds like. It’s a community of musicians, writers and enthusiasts centered in Red Bank, New Jersey. We are dedicated to non-traditional music education and we are a public charity that presents mostly free classes, workshops, concerts and more, in the interest of providing the opportunity for everyone to enjoy music and to express their artistic selves through music in a positive environment. We’re all about respect, unity and positivity, but above all else, making our local music scene a true community.”
One thing that stood out before I even got to the open mic was how well-maintained their MySpace page is.
