A week in preview.

The Kick-Off Show was just the beginning. This upcoming week is filled with a handful of exciting events at The Main Street Cafe.

There have been questions about the hours of operation for the cafe. Manager Sissy Broadwater responded to this on Facebook. Her post is below.

As of right now, we are essentially operating as an event center. Only open for business when we have something going on like a show, benefit dinner, or open mic. We have placed an order for our coffee supplies. When we get the shipment, figure out some recipes, and can provide a quality menu, we will officially be opened up for business as a full time cafe. I can't say when that will be, but we are working on it! Thank you guys for being patient but as they say, Disneyland wasn't built in a day. tee hee.

We appreciate any eager customers longing for that "Open" sign to be up on a regular basis. The time is coming soon!

For now, check out a preview for the events coming up in the next week.

Thursday, March 13th: Open Mic Night



Last Thursday the cafe held its first open mic, hosted by Fireside Soul, a local acoustic duo consisting of Josh Folmsbee and Daniel Nuzum. Talented musicians filled the night's air with well crafted melodies.

It was the first of many open mics that the cafe is holding. Every Thursday anyone will be able to come out and play music for a crowd.

If you're more of a listener, then come enjoy the music, drinks and food! There is no cover charge and we will be serving pizza, wings and hot dogs, as well as our wide selection of beer. You can also order food from Washington Square and have it delivered right to you.

So grab your guitar, keyboard, ukulele, or instrument of choice, and come jam out in a comfortable setting. Music starts at 7 p.m. and will go until approximately midnight.

After 10 anyone under 18 will need a parent or guardian accompanying them.

Friday, March 14th: Friday Night Fright


Zombie films may be a hot commodity right now, but nothing will beat the classic Night of the Living Dead. This Friday grab some friends and come out to the cafe to see the horror flick projected on our movie screen.

In addition to our normal food and drink menu, there will also be zombie juice (non-alcoholic), and graveyard pie (it's to die for).

This is a free, all-ages event. The doors open at 6, and the film will begin at 8.

Come get spooky with the cafe's crew.

Saturday, March 15th: Welcome To Die Tour


What's that sound? Oh, it's just the sound of hook-laden punk bands cranking the volume up to 11. Johnny B. Morbid, a touring horror-punk band from New Jersey,is being supported by three local acts.

Fellow horror-punk act and local scene legends The Renfields are joining Captain Catfeesh (Appalachian punk) and Get With It (raucous pop/punk-core) in an evening packed full of loud, energetic music.

Admission is $5, a low price to pay for all of the exciting music that is being presented. The show is all ages.

If you want to mosh, headbang or watch eccentric stage antics, then grab some friends and come rock out.

Monday, March 17th: Green Grub and Irish Pub, Waldo Hotel Preservation Society benefit dinner


It's not the first time that The Main Street Cafe has teamed up with the WHPS. The organization dedicated to saving and reviving the historic Waldo Hotel in Downtown Clarksburg will be hosting an Irish-themed night of food and entertainment.

This is an all-day event, starting at 11 a.m. There will be musical performances, including an open mic. Tickets can be bought at the door for $10.

The menu includes the following: corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, carrots, brick bread and a drink. Cash bar will also be open.

Come support a local community and let out your inner-Irish.

There will be more concerts and events coming later in the month. Keep up with us on Facebook and don't forget to tell all your friends about the awesome things happening here at The Main Street Cafe!
