One of the first people to rally around the Sun. open stage I started at Hirut in April of last year in the wake of the termination of Dan McLean’s weekly soirée at Sarah’s Café has stepped in to take over the event since I ended my involvement with the club at 2050 Danforth Ave. last week.

Sharron Katz has been a regular at the event and has started a Facebook group that says it will continue on with various hosts (Harpin’ Norm Lucien this week).

On the “HIRUT JAM (Sundays and Wednesdays)” group she posted that the Wed. event there will also continue, though nothing was said about who will host that one, if anyone.
