From the Overheard in PDX website:

The Cat Stories II Open Mic Event takes place on Saturday, August 20 at 10:30am at Joe's Cellar in Portland.

We need your stories!

Got a great story about cats? Get up on stage and tell your tale while the Cherry Apple Bug band performs a musical accompaniment.

I'll tell this one maybe. WHO'S IN?

@dmitrir: What? Are you new here? Cat stories and bars are exactly my comfort zone.

@Joneser: People telling stories about their cats while accompanied by a jug band at 10:30 in the morning is your comfort zone? To each his own.

Mea culpa: they're a bug band, not a jug band.

In the tradition of the "poetry slam" this should be referred to as "litter boxing."

@Todd, ok that was epic. A classic. @tcraighenery.....buddy, you are talking about cat fanciers who likely read poetry and Harry Potter novels, not juggalos. Relax.
