There are so many good photos I’m not sure how I could only pick 20 but here’s 20 iconic ones. You guys, words can’t describe how much of an impact this open mic has had on my life, and honestly Drew’s too (yeah Drew I’m speaking for you). If there’s one thing about US is that we were LOUD and we were unapologetically US. I am so so sad to see Kidd Coffee is closing its doors and it honestly breaks my heart to know such a staple for us is no longer. Uncensored Society helped me find who I was at a time when I didn’t have hope in myself, helped guide me and anchor me all the times I was lost, and mostly showed me I wasn’t alone and there was a community out there where I belong. I really hope it did the same for other people too.
I miss this place, this space, and everyone who attended every day. Not a second goes by where I don’t appreciate the impact this little open mic had on my life. This isn’t goodbye, it’s see you later. Who knows what’s next.
This is also just your friendly reminder to SUPPORT LOCAL! Drop your fave US memory and try to make Amanda cry (not hard)
