East Meets Words Open Mic - 07/13/07 - Part 3 of 3
Easts Meets Words Open Mic - 07/13/07 - Part 3 of 3 [23:55m]: 
Today, it is almost 2 months since Yellow Rage was at the East Meets West Bookstore. There is only so much to say about a recorded podcast that was done almost 2 months ago. I must say however that I do have fond memories of the July 13, 2007 open mic. Almost one year to the day, I attended my first open mic. I know that in August 2007, when I hosted the open mic, I said that it was one year since August that I attended my first open mic. Well, I lied. Or maybe I’m losing my memory. To be honest, the first Boston Progress open mic I attended was on July 14, 2006 when Eli Kao featured.
People often say that they lose their memory as they grow old. Maybe you don’t lose your memories. Maybe, you just remember the most precious moments in your life and everything else, the less memorable moments, you forget. I know that when I become really old, I will look back upon the month of July 2007 with fondness. Being one year since I attended my first open is only one of many reasons why it will go down as one for the ages. Heck, why stop there? I know that when I become really old, I will look back upon the year 2007 with fondness.
This blog post is not supposed to be about me, so I’ll stop talking and instead introduce the third and final podcast of the July 2007 open mic. Yellow Rage brings their brand of anti-racist, anti-sexist spoken defiant word to Cambridge and Boston. Listen and reflect kids.
