    Truth Be Told is an open mic night that aims to bring musicians and lovers of music together to network, share their songs in front of a friendly audience and listen to good music. All musicians, whatever their disciplines are welcome, but all those who would like to perform have to bring their own equipment. So if you're a musician or like listening to good music come down and have yourself a good Monday night. This is the order of the night, that includes the times, date and set up for the event: • We require up to 25 performers maximum on the night • Obviously you are under no obligation; this is a free and easy event, for friends and net-workers. • This is an informal event that is designed to for networking, listening to and playing music in front of a diverse crowd of musicians and music lovers in a relaxed and friendly environment. • Sound checks in the formal sense will be line checks only • I will end the night with 2 of my recent songs • In terms of set length; we are thinking sets would be no more that 10 minutes each. The equipment we will be providing is: Stage, microphones (3), Microphone stands(3), PA Two Music stand, CD player, Speakers, Vinyl DJ decks.

Q: do u perform at clubs? n what do u think of the hip hop/rap scene in the uk in regards to shows/performances
A: I've performed in quite a lot of UK clubs - On my show schedule - If you click PREVIOUS - I'm sure that'll allow you too see the venues I have performed at in the past. --- The UK Hip Hop / Rap scene in my eyes exists but is not well promoted ... Due to past incidents ... They label such events a "CROWD CONTROL" issue. --- Unless you're major in the charts, the money generated from performing in someone's place is the big win that'll overlook any negatives such as crowd control etc. --- Hip Hop events usually tend to be in 300 or less capacity venues for the local heroes on the scene, even those are tough to sell out due to the above as well as lack of investment in the UK's rising stars. --- Money huh - What can I say - Why get frustrated over anything you can't control? --- In all honesty - I hope when my 1st solo EP project releases - It'll be met with enough positive energy to grant me opportunities that'll open more doors for me as opposed to more closed ones. --- Thanks for the great ?
