Two-Song Tuesday

Donau115 · Donaustr. 115, Berlin

Weekly: Tuesday · 20:30

Welcome to Two Song Tuesday! Every week the floor is open for all types of incredible performers - no Tuesday alike! Would you like to present your music or poem or opera or rap or writing or etc/etc/etc?

For musicians: - Sign up on the spot at 19.30 - The random-order setlists appear at 19:45 at http://donau115.de - First come, first booked, randomly-assigned slot, 15 slots per night + an overflow maybe list that we rarely get to. - The bar staff tell you how to sign up, starting at 7.30pm. It is usually a link to an online sign-up form. - Your set may include TWO SONGS or last TEN MINUTES, WHICHEVER IS SHORTER (e.g. two seven-minute songs = NO, three three-minute songs = NO). - NO SOUNDCHECKS. Be ready. Slip on, blow minds, slip off. Setup is 90 seconds. - Sets are no longer than 10 minutes. THERE IS A STOPWATCH TO ENSURE THIS. If your set goes beyond 10 minutes, the stopwatch goes off in the middle of your song. (The alarm sound is in the key of C#, FYI, so modulate to that key for a smooth overtime ending.) - For the love of God, DO NOT PLAY THE SAME SONG OVER AND OVER EVERY WEEK. THIS IS BORING. TRY NEW THINGS. WE ADORE YOU. TAKE RISKS!
