🎵 Hive Open Mic 100
March 6-12, 2022
Happy 100th Hive Open Mic, woohoo! This community continues to make amazing strides toward world peace as we build brotherhood through our love of live music. It is thrilling to feel the energy coming through our songs, and through our encouraging words as we all express and connect. Especially at this time in human history, it is earth-shaking, awe-inspiring, and enlivening to imagine the impact of all these people simply offering our art, sharing our hearts.
Naturally, our 100th community concert event is a special one. This week's theme is: "Canta Conmigo" (Sing With Me), selected by our recent Spotlight Artist @jesuslnrs. Most of us know Jesús Armando Linares as one of the core members of our community's leadership team. He is gifted vocalist and a supporter of every single musician who participates here. Everyone is encouraged to share the collective current as we express and connect through: Canta Conmigo.
This week's unique invitation is to team up with someone and sing a song together.

Requests
Show support by engaging with the musicians. The greatest gift we can give to an artist is our attention. For this reason, we humbly ask that everyone offer some friendly words. Reward musicians by offering applause as if we're in a pub, a coffee shop, or concert hall. Our comments might be the vital voice that gives a musician the wings to fly, or the gills to dive deep!
