Open Mic at Lakehead Beer: Nov. 21/24

.

My theme was songs by women:

Complicated (Lavigne/The Matrix),
1234 (Feist/Seltmann), and
9 to 5 (Parton).

High(low?)light: Martina dedicated "American Idiot" to DJT and partway through, the power amp died (done, I expect, by Elon via Starlink). So the evening came to an early end with a totally unplugged version of "Teenage Dirtbag" (pictured).
