The rules
Sign-ups begin at 7:00 PM.
The first songwriter performs at 7:30 PM.
Last call is between 9:45 and 10:00 PM.
There are 10 guaranteed performance spots available.
Spots are first come, first served.
Performers must be present to sign themselves up.
Each performer gets 3 songs or 15 minutes, whichever comes first.
After the first 10 performers, the remaining writers may play 1–2 songs, time permitting, until last call.
Due to technical limitations, limited stage space, and the number of writers we need to accommodate, all performers must use the provided signal chain, DI, and pedalboard.
We cannot accommodate full bands or setups requiring more than two audio inputs at a time.
This is an original-song night. The only covers that are allowed are Guy Clark songs. If you perform a cover that is not a Guy Clark song, your set will be cut short.
If you perform someone else’s song and knowingly claim it as your own, you will be permanently banned from participating in future events.
