The Venue's Website lists this night, but may not be current.
The first Tuesday of each month, 7:00 PM. Only one source reports it.
A writers' guild's own open-mics page, checked Aug 13, 2026, still lists this event as meeting the first Tuesday of the month, 7 PM at The Basement [s1]. City licensing minutes from 2023 suggested the venue may have closed for renovation with an uncertain reopening, but the government document could not be read to confirm this. A review site still lists the business as of July 2026, though that alone doesn't confirm it's operating.
Monthly on a Wednesday, 6:30 PM; no source says which week.
Call ahead before you go
The venue's own ticketing page lists four upcoming instances of the Song & Story Open Mic -- Sept 16, Oct 28, Nov 18, and Dec 16, 2026 -- all confirmed to fall on Wednesdays (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. That matches the recorded day exactly. The same page's own text elsewhere describes it as happening 'once a month on a Tuesday night,' which contradicts its own listed dates and appears to be an outdated line on the page.
A page on valleyadvocate.com lists this night, but may not be current.
The Venue's Website could not be reached in one form and showed only a tiny placeholder page in another, with no mention of an open mic (checked Aug 13, 2026). The only substantive source remains a Western Massachusetts open-mic round-up from April 19, 2024 [s1]. That is more than two years old, past what a weekly mic needs for confidence.
