This is NOT a test of the Mad Swirl Open Mic Gratitude System. This is NOT a test.
::: BEEEEEEEEEEEP :::
WE mad ones in your area in voluntary cooperation with the Federal, State and Loco Open Mic-ers have developed this system to thank the open mic mad participators and appreciators. Since this IS an actual announcement, the Open Mic beep you just heard will be followed by official information, news or instructions...something like this:
With the most sincerest of praises and BEEEP's, we would like to thank ALL the mad ones for making 1st Wednesday's what they are and what they will be as the whole Mad Swirl of everything to come keeps on twirlin' and turnin' and swirlin'. We would like to thank and recognize the mad ones who glowed and flowed on the mic on 04.01.09, in order of appearance...

A very special Swirlin’ thanks to Big Swirve's amazin' trumpeter Chris Curiel, mad man G-Man Gerard Bendix on skins and Kenny Withrow on wailin' guitar for keeping us movin', groovin' and steppin' all night long!
And HUGE thanks to Absinthe Lounge owner Kevin for allowing us mad ones to go with our flow for over 4 years now. And a shout-out to the fine Lounge staffers Brian, John and Tracey for keeping the mad spirits fillin' and swillin' for us mad ones.
