The easiest way to get your gig on this list is if you create a Facebook event for it. That way it stays up until the date of the show and provides a link so fans can get details. If you make a single post or a graphic to announce it then I (and some of your fans) will probably miss it, especially if it’s a list of several shows. Also, I’m not going to transcribe your info.
Le moyen le plus simple d’avoir votre concert sur cette liste est si vous créez un événement Facebook pour cela. De cette façon, il reste à la date de l’émission et fournit un lien afin que les fans puissent obtenir des détails. Si vous faites un seul post ou un graphique pour l’annoncer, je le manquerai probablement (et certains de vos fans), surtout s’il s’agit d’une liste de plusieurs concerts. De plus, je ne vais pas transcrire vos informations.

PHOENIX COFFEEHOUSE OPEN MIC / MIC OUVERT
Our Phoenix Coffeehouse Open Mic is back!! So excited to be presenting a diverse array of musical and spoken word talents in a warm and welcoming setting at the Unitarian Church this fall.
How it works: this is a non-profit fundraiser. The admission is $10 for everyone (audience and performers). Half the funds raised will go directly to a non-profit community group. This month, we’ll be sharing the proceeds with Logisaction (www.logisaction.ca), whose mission is to offer aid services to the tenants of NDG and find solutions to problems regarding their housing situations.
Performers, please email me at music@ucmtl.ca for more info and open mic guidelines.

PHOENIX COFFEEHOUSE OPEN MIC / MIC OUVERT
Our Phoenix Coffeehouse Open Mic is back!! So excited to be presenting a diverse array of musical and spoken word talents in a warm and welcoming setting at the Unitarian Church this fall.
How it works: this is a non-profit fundraiser. The admission is $10 for everyone (audience and performers). Half the funds raised will go directly to a non-profit community group. This month, we’ll be sharing the proceeds with Logisaction (www.logisaction.ca), whose mission is to offer aid services to the tenants of NDG and find solutions to problems regarding their housing situations.
Performers, please email me at music@ucmtl.ca for more info and open mic guidelines.
