A tourism board's events calendar lists a Saturday, June 14, 2025 open mic night at The Other Side, with sign-up at 8 PM and the show at 9 PM [s1]. The same calendar lists another instance on Saturday, December 6, 2025, with the same times [s2]. The most recent confirmed date is about eight months old, beyond the roughly six-month window expected to call this an active weekly event.

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

The Venue's Website is an instrument retail store's shopping-cart page that never describes any in-store programming, so its silence about a Wednesday open mic carries no weight (checked Sep 7, 2026) [s1].

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

Weekly on Mondays, 9:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

The Venue's Website does not mention an open mic anywhere. Bourbon Theatre operates as a booked, touring concert hall, an unusual kind of venue to also run an open-signup Monday open mic, and the claim rests solely on an open-mic listing site.

The sources disagree on the night.

The venue's own calendar page does not mention an open mic or comedy anywhere. A downtown business directory instead describes a 'Duffy's Tavern Comedy Open Mic Night' on Monday, sign-up at 7 PM, comedy starting around 7:30 PM, though that page could not be read past its navigation to confirm how current it is. The venue's own page and the business directory disagree, and whether the open mic is music or comedy remains unresolved.

The Venue's Website could not be read past a security challenge, which is not evidence either way. No other source was found; this Monday open mic claim rests solely on an open-mic listing site.

An arts-journalism news site has a dedicated page titled 'Open Mic at A-Z Books,' but it could not be read past its navigation, so it neither confirms nor denies the event. A separate description suggests the schedule may be twice a month -- the second Friday and last Saturday, 7 to 10:30 PM -- rather than weekly, but this could not be confirmed.

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

The Venue's Website loads almost no real text behind nearly a megabyte of framework code, so it cannot confirm or rule out a Friday open mic (checked Sep 7, 2026) [s1]. This venue is a separate business from A To Z Bargain Books.
