10/5/11–Scribal Gathering, Stony Stratford.

 

This is NOT sour grapes

I have had a great time tonight. The artists were great. However, this is not an open mic. I left and missed what might be a great band because I was pissed off. You noticed. I am flattered you remembered my name. I wanted the chance to have my songs recorded
I was there at 7:30 and expect no special treatment, what I do is love open mic. I have done them around the country and this is unique in my experience mixing poetry and music, brilliant. What I find distasteful is that the list was pretty much, if not, full without all the names being there, therefore I did not play. Sounds like sore grapes but is not. I just expect a fair chance. If the list is full and it will be, limit to TWO, no exceptions. Insist that they are there to put their name on the list otherwise people like me will not get on. Run two a month. Will I come back next month, hell yes. Will I bring my guitar, hell yes. See you next month.
