Occasional.

The Venue's Website lists this night, but may not be current.

Weekly on Tuesdays, 7:00 PM. The Venue's Website has gone offline since we found this.

The Bluebird's own sitemap lists no events, calendar, or music page at all, and the specific events-calendar page cited previously now returns a not-found error (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. This does not confirm the jam has closed, the site may simply have been reorganized, but its schedule could not be re-verified through the venue's own current site.

Both sources give the same night and time, but neither confirms recent activity.

A listing on dcstandup.com lists this night, but may not be current.

An open-mic listing site's page for BJ Mallards was last verified in May 2024, more than two years earlier (checked Aug 14, 2026) [s1]. A business directory confirms the address but is undated as evidence of the mic itself, and the venue's social media page, now found under an updated name, could not be checked. No other dated source was found.

The Venue's Website lists this night, but may not be current.

Brewer's Cask's own website does not mention an open mic or Wednesday anywhere on it (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. Earlier support for this listing came from an open-mic listing site and a review site rather than the venue's own page, so this direct absence lowers confidence in it.

The Venue's Website suggests it may have ended.

Weekly on Saturdays, 7:00 PM. The Venue's Website does not mention it.

Caribbean Dynasty's own website does not mention an open mic or Saturday anywhere on it (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. The venue is confirmed to operate as a DJ lounge on weekends, which is consistent with there being no open-signup music program.

A listing on badslava.com lists this night, but may not be current.

The venue's own events page showed only a browser challenge screen this time, not real content, so nothing new could be confirmed. An earlier full read of the same page had found no mention of an open mic. An open-mic listing site continues to claim a weekly Saturday 7pm open mic [s1]. This contradiction remains unresolved (checked Aug 13, 2026).

Weekly on Mondays, 6:30 PM. The Venue's Website has gone offline since we found this.

The Bluebird's own sitemap lists no events or calendar page, and the events-calendar page used previously now returns a not-found error (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. This does not show the Django Jazz Jam has ended, a site reorganization is just as likely, but it could not be re-verified through the venue's own current site.

Both sources give the same night and time, but neither confirms recent activity.

An open-mic listing site last verified this listing in October 2023, nearly three years earlier (checked Aug 14, 2026) [s1]. The only other lead is a ticketing site's recurring listing for 'Monday Mania Open Mic Comedy,' organized by Canndo Haha Entertainment, which cannot by itself establish that the event still runs [s2]. No Venue's Website, dated review, or social media post was found either way.

No business named 'Ink's Tattoo Shop' could be found in Baltimore. An open-mic listing site gives an address for this listing, 119 W Saratoga St [s1]. A review site shows that address is occupied by two real, differently named tattoo shops, Free Ink and Circa Ink (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s2]. Neither name matches the recorded name, suggesting a mangled name for one of those two shops rather than a third, distinct venue.

The first and third Saturday of each month, 7:30 PM. Only one source reports it.

Max's Taphouse's own weekly-events page, last modified Sep 18, 2025 and still being served live today, describes an ongoing 'Stand Up Comedy - Open Mic' as part of its current weekly programming (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. That matches this listing.

Mobtown Ballroom's own website currently displays 'Open Mic' promotional content, including an image whose upload timestamp resolves to Feb 23, 2026, dating the material to within about six months (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1].

Motor House's own event page for 'Art of Comedy Open Mic' is live and shows it running every Wednesday in the West Bay performance space (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. That matches this listing's host names, Dark Mark Joyner and Alejandro Labrada, and format exactly.

Both sources give the same night and time, but neither confirms recent activity.

Motor House's own recurring-events listing still shows 'Mecca's Mic Poetry Open Mic' running every fourth Thursday (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s2]. This is consistent with a specific dated instance on July 23, 2026 [s1].

A page on baltimore.org lists this night, but may not be current.

The Venue's Website lists this night, but may not be current.

OpenWorks' own homepage and its events page, checked Aug 13, 2026, both make no mention of an open mic [s1]. Earlier support for this listing came from an unconfirmed description rather than a direct reading of the venue's own pages, so this absence lowers confidence in the listing.

Folk Music Night's own website lists its next date as Saturday, Aug 15, 2026, the day after, plus a schedule running through December 2026 (checked Aug 14, 2026) [s1]. This resolves an earlier weekly-versus-monthly question firmly in favor of monthly, on the third Saturday of the month.

Poets For Dinner's own homepage is live and references a current 2026 season fee structure and a 14-year-anniversary show in April 2026, confirming the organization is active this year (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. The organizer's own Baltimore subpage separately confirms the last-Sunday-of-the-month, 5 PM format [s2].

A calendar service could not be re-checked now (server error). The host's own promotional website had earlier confirmed the first-Wednesday cadence for this jam (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. That calendar service had independently confirmed the same cadence on the same day.
