Christopher Johnson April 15th
What a night what a night! The rain seemed to add a air of magic last night because the room was full of witches and warlocks last night! Surreal! Christopher did a marvelous job as the featured poet. He was on from the start! Bobbing and weaving like Muhammad Ali! Rumble young man RUMBLE!! AHHHH!!! Christopher has contagious spirit and it was a lot of fun. The crowd loved him.
The slam was incredible. I’ve never seen a slam like this one. Joyce hosted so maybe she will blog in later and give you her take on it. I had to leave during some of the slam so I didn’t see all of it. I did see the last round and Marlon Carey won the slam over Adam Stone by one tenth of a point. Get this though. Adam had 29.9 and Marlon came back and won it with a 30!! WOW!! Let’s wait for Joyce’s take on the whole thing.
Oz hosted the open mic and he was cool and collected. A few new poets on the open mic last night. Next week is Adam Rubinstein!
Every Sunday with a Poetry Slam starting at 7:30pm and a Featured Poet and Open Mic accompanied by the Jeff Robinson Trio starting at 9:00pm - there’s a $5 cover and you must be 21 to enter the venue - Sultry red lights, intimate tables, and wooden church pews give this small room one of the best ambiances in town.
