Happy (belated) Birthday Bill Barnum

On Monday, May 25, Bill Barnum came to Stone Soup Poetry during Meg Smith's feature to perform a micro-feature to celebrate his ninetieth(!!!) birthday. Bill doesn't frequent the open mics in Cambridge as much since he moved to New Hampshire, so this was a special occasion. It also marked his first time at the Out of The Blue Art Gallery since the move last year from Prospect Street to Massachusetts Avenue. I was lucky to record the whole performance. The time up north seems to have done him good. He still has the urge to perform and more energy than I've seen in a while.



Happy Birthday, Bill. Long may you mime.
