Join Mad Swirl this 1st Wednesday of August (aka 08.07.24) when we’ll be doin’ the open mic voodoo that we do do at our OC home, BARBARA’S PAVILLION!

Hosts Johnny O & MH Clay will open the mad mic, starting with some musical grooves brought to you by Swirve (Chris & Tamitha Curiel, Gerard Bendiks).

This month we will be featuring local Poet Roderick Richardson! MH says:
Roderick’s work is brilliant satire and social commentary; addressing racism, economic disparity, the foibles of relationships, and more. You can’t miss this show.

Come one. Come all. Come to participate…
