Listing notes

The ‌‌‍Dog & Bone is a back-street community local on John Street in the Abbey area of Lincoln, known for real ale, live music on Fridays and themed quiz nights. Fizgig lists its open mic on the second and fourth Thursday of every month at 8pm. Secondary listings describe the night as hosted by Gaz Clitheroe with music, comedy, poetry and spoken word all welcome, so the format may be broader than music alone.
