What is poetry if not the revolutionary moment of language, inseparable... from the revolutionary moments of history and from the history of personal life? - Internationale Situationiste, #8, 1963

Changes coming

{ Gigs }

Thanks to everyone who came out to the slam finals on Saturday, or the Mic. Check anthology launch on Monday night.

This site has grown completely out of date thanks to issues with the domain name, and problems with the blog software, so I’m going to overhaul it soon.

In the meantime, come on out next Tuesday (the 6th of May) to Cervejaria (College and Ossington) for a spoken word slugfest, when the Slam Fam and the Last Call Poets will slam against eachother with brutal love. 7:30pm, $5 - all funds will go towards the Slam Fam and our trip to Columbus for the massive Rustbelt regional slam in Columbus, Ohio in mid May.

And check back (relatively) soon for an updated site.

Upcoming gigs

{ Gigs }

Two performance readings coming up - one in Parkdale on Tuesday, the other in Ottawa. See the sidebar ->

I’m a last minute pinch-poet for Tuesday - I was fortunate enough to get a call from Johan, frontman for Mr. Something Something, who saw me and the team do our thing at the Open Door Festival. Should be a fun night. Co-features are Emily Pohl-Weary, Lisa McGlade and Frank Patrick.

In Ottawa, I’ve been invited to join Free Will in launching his book. I’ll be joned by John Akpata and the Oneness Collective. If you know anyone in O-town, let them know (town).
