Ninth Street Open Mic 2/4/06


We had an open mic last night at our house and here is the recording. We probably had 40 or so people, mabye 25 youth. The idea was to encourage youth to use their creativity in positive ways. We had a panel of judges and they decided on the top three performers based on a few categories and then the winners each recieved a prize. We had a great time and it was encouraging to hear young people using their gifts for the Lord. It's not the best recording, but I'll be editing out the good parts and putting them up later. It is worth a listen even if the quality is poor, so please hang with it. Some kids didn't want to use the mic and so there are some silences on the file.

These kids have some great things to say and they are very gifted as well. After the open mic part, we danced for a long time to the cha cha slide and stuff like that and then had a dance circle to some old school hip hop. It was a lot of fun.

It might take a while for the file to download. I haven't figured out much about compression yet. Please be patient and hang with the file. Thanks!

Wayne was the MC and I, as always, was the wannabe DJ.
