All of us here at Yellow Sofa Open Mic blog. . . (Excuse me, my dog hears something, I'll be right back). . . want to wish you a very happy, prosperous, and most of all, especially for you Mayan prophecy scholars, a somewhat routine 2012 calendar year.
Though we may not be out of the woods of surrealistic novelty yet, things seem to be lining up felicitously, and at least the former CEO of Godfather's Pizza is now significantly less likely to be assuming the presidency and having "The Power of One" theme from movie Pokemon 2 performed at the inauguration by Yo-Yo Ma, so that's progress right there.
Reflecting on the year about to end, we recall some of the many moments of skill and talent and human realness in music and spoken word. And it can't be said enough how many of us feel ongoing gratitude to the Sofa's proprietor Gabriel Moushabeck for his commitment to offering a community space for emerging performers, to Hannah who oversees programming, to songwriter Scott Cadwallader who is the Cal Ripken/Lou Gehrig of Open Mic that keeps the flame and the mic stands deployed, and to everyone who brings their A-game and an open heart to their performances and to the way they listen and support everyone.
