MONDAY AUG 24, 2026 - WYEP 91.3 and Straub Brewing Presents: AcoustiCafe Open Stage - host Ryan Slye & Friends featuring The Fine Lines!!
THEME. "OPTIMISM!"
There is no action that better encapsulates boundless optimism than adding "& Friends" to the name of your solo act. Go with it!! ** Don't forget you can change your performer name in your bio any time you want!! **
RYAN SLYE & FRIENDS contain multitudes. There are many rooms in Ryan Slye & Friends' house, and most of them have some pretty sad songs in them - but they are trying, Ringo. They are trying to be the shepherd.
THE FINE LINES are Autumn Ayers & David Dicksinon, weaving stories, poems, melodies and harmonies into a cozy blanket of "the eternal yes" - hey, more optimism!
SNOWBALLS of LOVE: Everyone is asked to support the artists you enjoy by throwing Snowballs of Love at the stage (in addition to applause) to show how much you love your friends on stage. Plus it looks cool on the livestream - which happens thanks to the equally cool Wes Mason Media!
COMPLIMENTS aka MMHMMs
Named for the agrippagentric Amy Mmhmm - We will have a compliment box in the green room where you can drop Mmhmm's and they will be delivered (spoken from the stage) to performers through the evening! Think of it as a single, well-aimed SNOWBALL OF LOVE
An example: "Last week, special guest Amanda Kitchens executed a left-hand percussion technique on accordion so smoothly that I had to get up close to the stage like I was trying to expose a magic trick!"
AC SHOW DETAILS:
Doors open downstairs in Mr Smalls Café at 5 pm for checkin, Signups begin around 6:30pm, show from 7pm until 11pm. Full sound and light system with backline (drums, keys, guitar and bass amp) available, and a house band to back you up if you want!
ACOUSTICAFE OPEN STAGE is brought to you by WYEP 91.3 FM, the station where the local music army travels on its stomach
AND BY DELICIOUS, LUMINESCENT STRAUB BEER - "That isn't a dog," the highly trained scientist explained. "It's not a moon, either," she added, taking a moment to polish her glasses with the hem of her lab coat. "Ladies and gentlemen, I realize that this seems as if we have entered the realm of mythology - but I do believe we are finally looking at a STRAUB!"
Come join our welcoming music-loving choose-your-own-family kind of atmosphere - We can't wait to see you, to hear your songs, jokes, poems and stories!
