Hey everyone!

Tuesday night is Open Mic at Proctors. Hope to see you all there. We think it's in Robb Alley -- first floor, but we'll send you an update tomorrow to confirm the location. It'll either be in Robb Alley, or on second floor in Guild Room.

Either way we'll have a good time.

See you soon!

Robert and Kate
