The ones I’ve been to have all had a bit of both - some guaranteed slots from people that reserved in advance, and lots of open slots for anyone that just turned up.
Given that some people have to travel a very long way with a lot of kit, I think having at least some reserved spots makes sense. Also means that the organisers know in advance that at least some performers will turn up.
this feels like one of those situations where there aren’t any rules beyond the ones made up by the person doing the hard slog of organising a thing - basically the glue that holds the world together, and chronically underappreciated by the rest of humanity.
Anke’s in Westcliff 7-9 tonight if anyone local is interested.
I’m looking forward to playing at the Toronto TEMOM tonight.
Falmouth EOMN at the newly refurb Bank pub tomorrow 10th September 7.30pm.

I wrote a little wrap-up over at the EMOM_Ffm thread.
I emom’ed.
I enjoyed that.
I’m back in Leicester tomorrow ruining everyone’s fun.
I think they might even be giving me 20 minutes…
Which is fine, cos I can just hold off pressing stop for five minutes longer than normal.
What will you be using?
Just a laptop
Good luck. Let us know how it goes.
Here is my TEMOM set. Tracks originally performed with Elektron gear bounced down to wavs to play on a Blackbox (all I had room for in my hand luggage).
How was it?
Didn’t go in the end, wife and kids got some sort of bug.
Shit everywhere.
Brilliant. Got to love those family man responsibilities.
