About DMV.SHOW

DMV.SHOW is the home for Open Source — an open mic on a pro-audio rig at Eighteenth Street Lounge, every other Tuesday, 9PM–2AM, 21+, free admission. Hosted by Jona Monet; organized by Rainier, MartyHeemCherry, Jylups and Mental Stamina.

Why the site exists

A night that happens every other Tuesday leaves a lot behind — photos, sets, the people who showed up. Most of it ends up scattered across stories that expire. DMV.SHOW is where it stays: the dates, the lineups, the recaps and the room.

The colors

White, black and red — the flag of Washington, DC. Three stars, two bars, nothing else.

The Discord

The night has a Discord — Open Source — ESL — Washington DC. It is the room between Tuesdays, open to anyone who comes to the night. Join it here.

The network

DMV.SHOW runs on HipHop.World. One member account works here and across every site on the network, so an artist who plays Open Source has a profile that follows them.
