Open Mic from the "Days of '69"

Last night I went to an open mic in Cambridge at a Methodist church. It was run by two people who apparently own a coffee house under the name of Squawk. All the publications and listings have 9:00 PM as the start time, however, the said owners of said coffee house didn't show up until 9:30. This of course raised the same question again, "Why do I bother showing up on time?" I felt like I was back in my hippy town of Northern California. I tried to be open and accepting but it was a little too much for me. There were 3 performers including myself and about as many audience members. I played, I listened to be courteous and I left. Don't be surprised if I have a Feature spot there in the coming months.
