Both sources give the same night and time, but neither confirms recent activity.
A previously cited page for this open mic now shows an unrelated concert, likely a stale link, not usable as evidence (checked Aug 13, 2026). The venue's own shared Tuesday page shows two sign-up forms, one for musicians and one for comedians, supporting a distinct comedy track alongside the music mic that night [s1]. A nightlife listing corroborates a Tuesday comedy open mic [s2]. The 9:30 PM start time is unconfirmed directly.
The venue's own live events page lists 19 upcoming recurring instances of this Tuesday 7-11 PM music open mic, including Aug 18, Sep 1, and Sep 8, 2026 (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. A second event page on the same site, dated Apr 2026, corroborates the same recurring series [s2].
Night and frequency are unclear — no source gives either.
Call to confirm the night
A page on eatcheeselouise.com suggests it may have ended.
Cheese Louise's own event-calendar section shows no events at all, the first signal directly from the venue (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. This could reflect a limit in how the page loads rather than a truly empty calendar, and it does not confirm or rule out the mic. Other sources are split on whether this is a music or comedy open mic, and the only dated source anywhere is from August 2021, with no source pinning down a day of the week.
The venue's events page suggests it may have ended.
Weekly on Mondays, 6:00 PM. The Venue's Website does not mention it.
Only one citation exists for this listing. A 2024-dated event page on Definitive Brewing's own site shows no recurrence language on re-reading and appears to describe a one-time event, now about two and a half years old (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. Its events and calendar pages now return not-found errors, and a search found no new dated source. No cancellation evidence was found; status is genuinely unknown.
Weekly on Sundays, 9:00 PM. The Venue's Website does not mention it.
Both of Empire Comedy Club's own pages for this Sunday open mic return not-found errors (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. Detail describing a 9 PM start with 8:30 PM doors, hosted by Matt Dundas, exists only in search-engine summaries and has never been read on a live page, so it is treated as unconfirmed.

Both sources give the same night and time, but neither confirms recent activity.
Empire Comedy Club's own SPOTS page now returns a not-found error. Its homepage shows only ticketed headliner shows under a 'National Headliners Weekly' banner, with no mention of SPOTS or open-mic programming (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. An archived copy was last captured in February 2026, about six months earlier [s2]. Nothing says the mic ended, and nothing current shows it running.
The third Wednesday of each month, 8:00 PM. Something about this has changed recently — confirm before going.
The venue's own dated page, from Jan 21, 2026, states this event runs 'every third Wednesday'; Jan 21 is confirmed as the third Wednesday of that month, matching the page's claim (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. That page is about seven months old, within the roughly 12-month window for a monthly event. An open-mic listing site separately corroborates the host, cost, and hours. An earlier weekly claim is now corrected to monthly.
The venue's own live events page confirms an 'Original Music Open Mic' every Monday, 7-11 PM, with 6:30 PM sign-ups (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. That matches what is listed here. The same page separately lists a Thursday comedy and trivia hybrid event as distinct programming at the same venue.
The same venue events page confirms 'Comics Against Humanity,' formerly called Tight Fives, a Thursday 7-9 PM comedy and trivia hybrid hosted by Carlo Rojas, current and distinct from the venue's Monday music open mic (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1].
The sources give the same night and time, but none confirms recent activity.
Occasional.
Mayo Street Arts' page shows one instance, Friday, Oct 14, 7:30-9:30 PM, but Oct 14 only fell on a Friday in 2022 (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. An archive shows the page was never updated after 2023 [s2]. Ticket listings confirm a real recurring series, dated 2021-2024. One of those, a Feb 9, 2024 'Valentine Extravaganza,' is search-surfaced [s3]. Every instance is over two years old; cadence stays irregular.
A listing on allevents.in lists this night, but may not be current.
Newscapes Brewing's own website again showed no readable content (checked Aug 13, 2026). An events listing for a Newscapes open mic showed a permanently-removed error, expected for a past one-off date, neither confirming nor refuting an ongoing series [s1]. An open-mic listing site remains the only source for day and time, and the venue's mix includes a separate comedy event, so the format is unclear.

The venue's own upcoming-shows page, read directly, lists four monthly open-mic instances — Sep 2, Oct 7, Nov 4, and Dec 2, 2026 — each with a named rotating host; all four dates are confirmed as Wednesdays and each is the first Wednesday of its month, matching the claimed monthly, 1st-Wednesday cadence (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1].
The sources give the same night and time, but none confirms recent activity.
The library's own current Highlights page makes no mention of 'Moose' storytelling (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. Its Events page is silent on it too [s2]. The original event page now redirects to the site's homepage. A regional storytelling directory confirms the Maine Organization Of Storytelling Enthusiasts still meets monthly on the second Wednesday nearby, but names no venue [s3]. Whether the library remains its host is in doubt.
Both sources give the same night and time, but neither confirms recent activity.
An archived copy of the Equality Community Center calendar shows a dated page for nearly every Tuesday from late 2022 to Dec 16, 2025, excluding a short-lived series (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s2]. For 2026, the same archived copy shows zero dated pages, a sharp break [s2]. The venue's most recent dated event page is from Jul 29, 2025, about 13 months earlier [s1]. That is too old to confirm continuation into 2026.
Weekly on Sundays, 7:00 PM. Only one source reports it.
The venue's own undated page was dated using an archive of past captures: ten captures from 2024-2026 show real, differing content rather than a frozen template, and the most recent, from May 18, 2026, about three months earlier, still reads 'Sunday at 7pm! Hosted by Dave Jacquet' (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1].
