It's time to rock out with... ummm never mind. Let's keep this as family-friendly as we can.

So we will start this off with Jam #1 because we know that deadlines are not our strong suit and it might not be exactly one week between rounds. We will try our best, it's just that sometimes we get caught up in life and don't get around to things in a precise and punctual manner.

The Rules

(so far...)

First off, we are not picky. We don't care what your performance is as long as it is a video that can be played in the post, it is one take, and at some point, during the video, you give the Jam # and say it's for Whaleshares Open Mic.

Oh, and it has to be posted to the pod.

Pretty easy, right?

We would love to hear you read your poetry or short stories, sing a song, perform some stand-up comedy or do your impression of local wildlife. Maybe some interpretive dance or some funny video gameplay.

Whatever you want to do. We just want to be entertained.

We need it, right? Without art, we will shrivel up into dried husks of boring people that crunch numbers and only drink distilled water. Nobody wants that.

What you get.

As we mentioned in the intro post, this is not a contest. This is a weekly-ish jam to try and get some live entertainment happening on here with no pressure or competition to worry about. Just be you.

In return for just relaxing and being you (plus putting it on video for all to see), you will get an equal share of the tips from each round. 100% of the daily rewards will be put in the tip jar and shared evenly with all entrants. You are welcome to put in multiple entries but your share will be per entrant, not each entry.

That said, collaborations are encouraged and if you want to mix up something with someone else, go ahead. We will split the reward with whomever you want. Each person will have to say the week number during their part of the video. Probably. Let's deal with that when we get there. We are fairly flexible with creative license.

So let's have a blast!

Life needs to have some fun in it or what's the point? We're in this together and we should at least enjoy it.
