This is a wonderful open mic hosted by Neal Braverman and Mike Delaney with a very welcoming and relaxed environment, great performers and an encouraging audience. kid friendly too which makes it possible to bring along my young son which is a nice bonus

As the ebb and flow of the oceans water, I will be returning back to ROM. Neal and Mike make you feel like family right away and take every opportunity to listen, support and encourage. What a wide range of talent that stepped up to the mike that magical night. I am grateful to Don White, who recommended us to come. Thank you!

Congratulations on an amazing first year! Neal & Mike, you have taken ROM far beyond where I thought it would go in the first year. The musicians have been of an amazing caliber every time that I've attended. I'm so proud to sponsor the ROM website and email for you. Play on!

Thank you Neal for the kind thoughts and words and the great action pictures. I enjoyed listening, playing and celebrating ROM and all of you who have created this wonderful space for sharing live, local art. I look forward to returning whenever I am available. I am most grateful that I am welcome. All the best and peace in the new year. Michael Michael J. James

Dear Neal, I really learned a lot at ROM. You guys all come together to make not only beautiful music, but also to make a beautiful community. After I graduate this spring, I am planning on moving to Boston, and I can promise I will be back at least in the spring. I might even be able to come during spring break. Please tell Arie I said thank you for supporting me, and to check my myspace music page for song updates. Thank you for hosting us, and I will definitely be seeing you in the near future. Also, thanks a lot for the pictures, I will definitely be using them on my website. Have a nice day, Steve My website: www.myspcace.com/soundslikesteveg

My thanks to life-long friend Sam Schneiderman who has sponsored this website and the email address. As SAM of, The Greater Boston Home Team, Is our one and only sponsor!! Thanks Sam!!! Thanks to F.J. Higgins Funeral Home for allowing us use of their large parking lot! Mike and I have been blessed by having the 1 key item so very important for any organization to flourish! That is OUR FOUNDATION! Said Foundation is comprised NOT of Money but of each and every one of YOU! We would love to see the use of this Guest Book as a Forum of constructive thought! To those of you who have come early, to help us set up and have stayed late to help break down! Thanks so much! for all the varied goodies you have brought to ROM in addition to yourselves! You all know who you are! Thanks to our dishwashing folks at the end of our nights which is a huge help to me in trying to get out of there before 2AM! Roslindale Open Mike would NOT be what it is, has been and will be in the future if it was not for the insight, experience and knowledge of my Host and Musical Mentor, All in All, My deepest thanks go out to my friend, Mike Delaney. Mike has helped navigate ROM all year!!! In Mike, I/WE have been blessed with one of the most versatile and energetic Host's I could ever have hoped for!!

Lots of talented performers on opening night! It's an ideal venue as well - spacious, comfortable, and without competition to be heard from ice cream blenders or other small appliances.

Sorry I missed this one but am planning to come out soon. I've heard good things!

Good to see there are still wonderful opportunities for Artists who need support......Keep up the GREAT WORK. Harry Sandler
