Update from Producer Tanya Moberly - March 17, 2011

SALON, that unique, Bistro & MAC Award winning Weekly Open Mic Event created and hosted by Mark Janas returns to Etcetera, Etcetera - 352 West 44th Street, NYC 10036 – on Sunday, March 20th from 7-10:30PM.

The optional theme for the evening is “It's In The Stars!”. In honor of the Spring Equinox and to celebrate all of our Sun Signs, people will be seated with their own element. Fire (Aries, Leo & Sagittarius), Earth (Taurus, Virgo & Capricorn), Air (Gemini, Libra & Aquarius) and Water (Cancer, Scorpio & Pisces) will all have their own sections in the audience. If you don't know your sign, don't worry. All you need to know is your birthday, and you will be guided. If you do know your sign, bring in a song that has something to do with the qualities of that sign!

Remember, any material, on or off theme, is always welcome at Salon.

Our Co-Host will be the Magical, Mystical Maureen Taylor! Maureen is a Diva of Opera, Theatre & Cabaret as well as an expert on Astrology, Numerology & Tarot. For more information: www.maureentaylornyc.com.

Their goal is to get $15,000 total (and it's all or nothing) in pledges by March 31st in the hopes of recording their debut album, “8-Track Throwback.” Please go to: www.Kickstarter.com/profile/MarqueeFive to watch video, read more about the project and the tiered list of rewards, and to check their progress updates.

Here's some important information about the Salon you should know. The Salon is an ongoing open entertainment event in which singers, writers and musicians share their talent with each other and audience members. We are currently enjoying our new venue, Etcetera, Etcetera where there is a $10 COVER (cash) AND a $15 FOOD/BEVERAGE MINIMUM (cash or credit). You may sign up to perform starting at 6:15 by seeing one the evening's 'Etceterettes' to fill out a card with your name, the name of your song, whether it's a ballad or an up tempo,(up tempos and comic songs are greatly encouraged!) and any upcoming events you'd like the co-host to announce. Please remember that we do not present performers in order of sign-up and, due to our time restraints and other variables, filling out a card does not guarantee you will perform, but we do our very best to get you up! It is usually a good idea to bring a few different song choices to avoid duplication. All types of material including spoken word are welcome at the Salon but please limit your selections to three or four minutes in length and please bring clear, complete charts for Mark to read. Sitting on the piano is not allowed, nor is flash photography. If you would like to add a (or remove your) name from our list, e-mail me at tanya@tanyamoberly.com

Looking forward to seeing you all Sunday, March 20th!

Thanks,

Tanya Moberly
