About This Open Mic
The Night
The Rhodehouse is a busy live-music and entertainment venue on The Parade in Sutton Coldfield (greater Birmingham). Its 'Amigos' open mic runs every Thursday, hosted by Doug Foulger and his house band — the bar opens at 7pm and music kicks off around 8:15pm, with free entry whether you're playing or just watching. It's a popular night, so performers are asked to message Doug via the Amigos at The Rhodehouse Facebook page to grab a slot in advance.
