Announcement
A Personal Note From The Host: @cabelindsay
Dear Community,
Hope this message finds you safe, strong, happy, and well. I encountered an emergency situation in my hometown of Austin, Texas, all week, which prevented me from being present with you, sharing our love of live music. I will explain later. Sorry I missed you. I ask for your forgiveness.
I'm working on a support system now, and thankful to @mipiano, @juliopalomo, @edwardstobia, and other community members stepping up this week to help cultivate our growing community. I am delighted to see so many entries and look forward to listening as soon as possible.
Gratefully,
Cabe

Acknowledgments
In the Hive Open Mic community, every week is an inspiring musical journey. Here, talented musicians bring their gifts to the virtual stage, reaching around the world.

Man! i was getting worried about you! im sorry about your situation at home but im glad to see you are ok! hoping you can solve ur issue soon, greetings!!!
Thanks for your concern, and your support. Your friendship to me and other members of our community is deeply felt, and appreciated. Yes, I feel I am safeguarded, with lots of options for shelter while my home is being repaired. All is well.
Do you want to get involved? Do you want to support music and this project? Follow us to keep you updated and read our Introduction post!
I hope the emergency situation will pass as soon as possible and you will be back stronger :-)
I personally don't think you have to ask forgiveness now, you had difficulties to be here. But we do missed you also and the topic is just so nice and timeless! We will try do our best the help and continue with the encouragement and comments, and will wait for you to shine with your musical publication :-)
I feel such relief coming through your words. Thank you so much. Yes, I see you sending out your wonderful encouragement all across this community - there must be ~50 entries this week, wow! I'm working on catching up now, and I simply can't do all that I wish to do for this community this round, so I am putting my hands up in the air and letting go for the moment. I feel exceedingly grateful to you for being so helpful with commenting, so the musicians continue to feel appreciated. I'm grateful for everything you're doing, including the amazing music you bring. Thank you again.
I saw this week how difficult (time consuming) has to be to you this commitment. Try to listen to every entry, write a meaningful comment, do the curation etc. I did just a small part, comparing to the real number of entries.. You rock @cabelindsay with your work! I think everyone from Hive Open Mic community has to be grateful for your amazing job.
Thank you in the name of everyone. 💝
Muy fuerte la situación. Aquí estábamos extrañando a nuestro amigo y querido anfitrión, que cada semana nos estimula de distintas maneras, y siempre nos tiene palabras distintas de entusiasmo e incentivación, a pesar de ser tantos, y su expresión sincera nos conlleva a querer hacerlo mejor cada semana.
Dios bendiga tu localidad, apreciado Cabe.
English: Thank you for understanding my situation, and for being a vital voice in keeping the songs going strong even in my absence. I am so proud of us for valuing ourselves and our community, cherishing the songs we all carry, and enjoying the music that brings harmony to the world.
Spanish: Gracias por entender mi situación y por ser una voz vital para mantener las canciones fuertes incluso en mi ausencia. Estoy muy orgulloso de nosotros por valorarnos a nosotros mismos y a nuestra comunidad, apreciar las canciones que todos llevamos y disfrutar de la música que trae armonía al mundo.
I'm going with a song by Arlo McKinley and The Lonesome sound this week...its called This Damn Town...
