We are excited to announce that for our 153rd event, the Scotland-based Moray Firth Synthesizer Club (MFSC) and the Colorado-based Rocky Mountain Synthesizer Meet (RMSM) will be collaborating once again to host a Winter Solstice Open Mic Synth Concert.

Please do this by Wednesday the 11th of December.
You can apply as an individual or as a group, but not both. If there are more than 10 applications for a slot, then players will be chosed by a lottery.
Player lineup will be announced on December 12th. Others go on a waiting list in the case that someone has to drop out.
If you are selected to play, but have never played during one of our open mics you will need to do a sound check before Dec 19th as we don’t have time during the open mic to sort out audio issues.
