Open Mic - we need you!

Hey, you shy or modest Cohenite performers, we need you to sign up!!! ;-) It's only 4 weeks now to our Krakow Event! :shock:

Our Open Mic segment is looking fairly empty at this stage. I can assure you, if you have any talent at all, it will be a good experience for you to perform in front of the friendly appreciative non-judgemental audience of the Cohenite family. 8)

All you need to do is bring your guitar and/or voice or whatever other instrument. I'm confident our organisers could acquire a keyboard as well.

Remember it's songs and poetry. We might also have space for a Cohenite segment at the end where you can do your own material that's inspired in some way by Leonard's work.

Okay, I'll wait to hear from you. (darby203@bigpond.com)

Cheers,
Andrew :)

Hi Sue

I am already on Andrew's list.

It's not a blessing but a curse
to make it on Andrew's list
there is no way to reimburse
when he treats you with his fist

Our dear Henning Franz
will perform Der Totentanz.

The Dance Of The Dead
would fill its own thread
with the thrash in my head
I am ready for that

Then I will ring you all about with razorblades and broken crucifixes...

What songs you wanna play Henning?

Am thinking I might like to do the Stranger Song. Am I allowed to do more than one?

Maybe five, by the looks of it, Suemerlyn ;-) . It'll be great to hear you play and oh how I love the Stranger Song. Performance art with the description you've just given sounds intriguing, too :) . Henning playing as you encircle him with razorblades and crucifixes. Cutting edge.

Thanks, Lizzy!

I didn't mean to necessarily literally encircle Henning with those objects... Just getting in the (sometimes) Lenny mood.

Hi Suemerlyn,

Of course you can and I hope you are able to do even more than just The Stranger Song - three or four would be good! ;-)

Just confirm this with me either here or at darby203@bigpond.com

Cheers,
Andrew :)

Hi Andrew,

Oh, Great! I'd love to do three or four songs, so this is my confirmation.

I should be arriving in Krakow in the evening of August 4th, by car. Am staying at Hotel Eden.

Guitar will be with me!

I know that Andrew is concerned that not very many people have signed up for Open Mic. My sense is that not that large a proportion of our group is checking the forum very often. Maybe something should be posted on Facebook -- there's quite an active group of LC fans sending messages back and forth there.

Andy, Henning has challenged me to a Sumo Wrestling contest. Would that be an appropriate performance for the Open Mic or would it be wrong for him to be humiliated in public ?
