Alex had Dan Ruiz open for him, and then Alex got on to play his set list. Alex Siniari was featured as the first interviewed artist on JerseyMic. You can read the interview below:

JerseyMic is implementing new, better ways to support itself.

The site has been live for over a month now, and the first solid month (May) is almost over. Expect a report on how JerseyMic’s first month went and hopefully, a better way of including advertising that won’t be so annoying.

Also!

We’re thinking of getting a forum. Would a forum sound interesting to you? Would you participate? Let us know in the comments section. Just type in your name and email, along with a “Yes” or “No”. How can we make JerseyMic better for you?

If you’ve never heard of or been to storm, check out the review on our website here: (http://jerseymic.com/index.php/storm-open-mic-monday-nights-at-pratts-in-eht-nj/)

May 11th, 2009 open mic at Pratt’s in Egg Harbor Township NJ. It was another fun night

It started with the host, Jeff Caraway and his friend Brian Wells on guitar

Scary, but also enthusiastic

Audience! Owner of Pratt's in the middle

Stan Schwertly, Jeff Conoway, and friend on Harmonica!

It was a short little time because it was so loose. Like it was said in the review, Storm on Mondays is run by Jeff Conoway and is a loose, fun open mic. Definitely go check it out if you’re a little more interested in a good time, rather than showing the world your new song. You can do that too here, but don’t expect everyone to be very serious.

Jeff Caraway hosting STORM

Here are the pictures from Storm Open Mic on May 4th, 2009 at Pratt’s Hill of Beans in Egg Harbor Township, NJ. As reviewed previously, the Storm Open Mic night hosted by Jeff Conoway is a much more loose setting than anything out there. As such, there’s a little less “So-and-so played xxx” in this post. We got names of songs but last names of performers was a little bit tougher! Still, enjoy the pictures:

Randy and Jeff Caraway playing

Randy played three of his originals,

“Mrs. Perfect”
“Working on the Side of the Road”
“Wanna Go Home”

Eric Johnston and Jeff Caraway playing

Eric has an operatic voice and sang

“Bridge Over Troubled Water”
“She’s Got a Way”

Stan Schwertly and Jeff Caraway covering the Beatles

James Montgomery playing at STORM

James Montgomery played

“Queen of Hearts”
“Till There was You”

And a special shoutout to Brian Wells, who played solo guitar for many of the acts. He’s really talented

Brian Wells rocking out and giving the open mic some spice.

And probably my favorite picture from the night!

This is off Jeff, Sarah, Eric, and Kellen. Kellen is a human mic stand as Sarah and Eric singing Jewel’s “Who Will Save Your Soul?”

Jeff, Sarah, Eric, and Kellen playing "Who will Sa-aaave your soul?"

Again, try to check it out on Monday nights at Pratt’s in EHT!

“Storm” Open Mic Monday Nights at Pratt’s in EHT, NJ

Pratt's Hill of Beans in EHT, NJ

STORM

When you hear the word “Storm”, you usually think of thunder, lightning, and rain (and who hasn’t been thinking of rain lately?). At Pratt’s Hill of Beans in Egg Harbor Township in NJ, you’ll be electrified by the time you’ll have at Storm. “Storm” is the name of the open mic currently being hosted by Jeff Conoway. The open mic is from 8pm-10pm, and the main focus is having a good time.

Rather than having assigned slots for each performer, Jeff loosens things up by calling people in what he calls his “Kumbaya” style night. Everyone gets a chance to play, and for some songs, everyone sings along. Jeff is a multi-talented musician, and brings a mandolin, guitar, and keyboard to play. Jokes are made and songs are given a shot even if Jeff hasn’t played them before. The night is relatively new and is still lifting off the ground. It was an older crowd the night we went, but as long as you’re out of high school, you’ll have a good time.
