Trend’s Open Mic Night a Hit

Last night, Trend Coffee & Tea House had its open mic premier and word is the place was packed.

About 20 people performed, including East Orange guitarist Reginald “Guitaro 5000” Guillaume (below). The evening is also open to poets, comedians, and anyone who wants to express him- or herself. At least one poet spoke last night, which was followed by a Q&A about his work.

The evening was hosted by William Mallory, a singer/songwriter, author, performer, and a contributor to Disney soundtracks.

Open mic nights at Trend will take place every Thursday from 7:30-10:30. There is also an open mic at Studio 12 (Tapastry) every Wednesday. The Montclair Public Library’s open mic series is no longer running. Here’s to Trend for taking its place.

More liberal lunacy. And no mention of the tree ordinance? (you will no longer be in charge of the landscaping of your property). No mention of the Bike Locker ordinance rearing it's ugly head again? I imagine the pay-reaises for non-union employees is a moot issue. Given the proclivities of the incoming council, there probably won't be non-union employees much longer.
