Blair – August 26
Blair was the featured poet yesterday and he was sensational!! A wonderful talent and great person as well! He had his guitar and sang a few songs for us too so he came ready to jam!! I first saw him at the National Poetry Slam in 2002 and he blew the roof off the place! He did the same yesterday at the Lizard Lounge and it was a pleasure to have him back at the club.
Adam Stone won the slam yesterday. We are about to start a new slam season soon. Things have changed at the National Poetry Slam so we will change things at the Lizard to accommodate it. The iWPS for 2008 is in October so we will have 2 sets of slams to determine our representative. Check here for more info.
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.
