Greetings Easy Speakers!

It’s time again for Easy Speak at the Hummingbird Saloon!

I would be more than delighted if you came and shared your songs, poems, shopping lists, paragraphs, memos and all measures of inspired performance that take up no more than five minutes at the mic.

We start things up round about 8pm, there will be a sign-up sheet at the bar. And….happy hour prices all evening!

Is there going to be the open mike this coming Monday Dec 23 at the Hummingbird? I’m guessing not, but thought I’d check.
Also, can I tell a story instead of a poem? I know it has to 5 min or less…
Thanks,

Yes this is an open mic.
