The Blue Lantern open mic night was founded in the year 2000 by one Neal Thompson and his friend Laura (Mooi), giving the good folk of Wrexham a chance to show off their song-writing skills to peers and perfect strangers. Over the years many stars have come and gone but the lantern still burns bright. After being hosted successfully by Andrew (Gwildor) for a time, followed by a short break in proceedings, Neal is once again at the helm.
