The Comedy Mothership open mic is one of the most coveted stage slots in Austin comedy. Founded by Tony Hinchcliffe and Joe Rogan, the Mothership has quickly become the epicenter of Austin's stand-up scene, and its Monday night open mic is where both rising comics and seasoned pros come to test new material. Held every Monday at 7pm in the LITTLE BOY room, the open mic draws comics from all over Texas and beyond. Signups are in person and spots fill fast — arrive early. The intimate room and professional sound setup make this feel like a real show, not just an open mic. General admission is $10, booth seating is $15 (plus fees). If you're a comedian, this is the room you want to be in. If you're a fan, you might catch the next big thing before anyone else does.
