    My performance was cut short yesterday (my 46th week in a row) by a technical issue, my speaker died, and unfortunately I cannot afford a new one until I get paid Friday, but it won’t be here until the Saturday after. So unfortunately unless I can come up with another sound system for this upcoming Saturday, my streak very well could be coming to an end, I am pretty bummed I really wanted to make it at least 52 weeks in a row. I would also like to thank everyone for all the encouragement since I have been out there, it’s why I am so bummed out about this unfortunate turn of events.

    Can someone loan Mr. Hank Swagger a speaker until his new one comes so that he doesn’t have to miss a week? I want you to attain your goal of 52 straight weeks of joyful dancing. Alternatively, is there a place to rent one? Would people pitch in for a rental?

    Thanks, I hope an alternative presents itself, not excited at going out there in my earbuds, I guess a deaf person wouldn’t be able to tell the difference, but it would really hard to get pumped up for it, plus everyone would stop me & ask mr why there’s no music, so not really wanting to deal with that

    What kind of speaker are you looking for? Bluetooth, rechargeable? How long does it need to last?

    Let us know if this works out! I was going to post on the main page, but if it gets resolved without that, all the better (though then it would be worth a shoutout to the kind lender) – Tracy

    Can we all chip in an help? I think it would be something that a few of us would love to help with given all the joy you give to our community? Can we get one off of Amazon?

    Thank you so much wraye1 that is so amazing, you have no idea how much that means to me, I am so appreciative, and I would hope others would help, I really love West Seattle, the people and community are the favorite for me of all the places I have lived.

    Great! Let’s do this. Can you post your email so we can go shopping. I’m not sure we can get it done by this weekend unless you can find this speaker locally.

    hankmonk@hotmail.com I was going to check out the speaker from cheeseWS777 & possibly use that as a stop gap solution for this week. I am so humbled and appreciative, that is amazing. I am the one usually doing things for others, I am speechless.
