It's been about a year since Brian stopped here. Was a great time, but I haven't been seeing much activity here in the Des Moines section (not that I've been adding anything lately myself). I just thought we needed to get something started here.

Anything going on out there?
We had a great time at both our Iowa stops last year. Thanks for checking in Bryan!

Well, I'll see if I can't offer some posts to help liven it up! I'm in Newton (about 30 miles east of Des Moines).

I don't know about you folks, but I enjoy visiting open mike nights. If anyone else does I'll see if I can't post a list of local ones.
