Lately fewer poets have committed to this so this year I am floating a different idea for that time. We'd love to have people sign up to read. This would not be an open mic <i>per se</i> but would also include the opportunity to add music. This could be in the form of a song or just an informal jam.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">I have several guitars and other stringed instruments folks could play. (Many are vintage) but I'd need to know who might need them. I realize that Don, Jamie, and Preben won't be with us in person, but if this is of interest to anyone let me know ASAP as Matt is ready to finalize the schedule.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">And please, if you owe me or Joyce any forms or payments make that a priorArirty.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Thanks,</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Bruce</div></div></body></html>
