Oh Harriet!! I am so happy to read your post!
You know, I was hesitant to post the info, didn't want anyone to think i was pushing on them; but! I hate after the fact to hear.. "WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME!?!??!" So,i figured I'd just put the info out there and folks could do as they choose smile

Thank you!!! I am so proud of the open mic .. I was really nervous about doing it at first .. I had and still have a lot to learn about running sound .. I have met so many new and wonderful artists .. i LOVE having new players come each week .. love watching players perfecting their performance .. there is so much to enjoy! I .. RI Songwriters Association was so impressed with the open mic they asked if they could "sponsor" it .. It didn't change my open mic, but was nice to have their blessing and also added PRESS .. very nice grin

thank you for your kind words and encouragement love

Joanne, you deserve it as much as anyone I've ever heard.


You've got to know your limitations. I don't know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way. -Johnny Cash
