Links To Those Who Have Submitted Performing Live!
We had a good time last week at the Wed night Poetry/Open Mic thing that we host at the Burnt Toast in Boulder, on the Hill. We tend to always have a good time, but this week an extra fun time was had by all. A nice mix of new comers and loyal every-weekers performed some really great stuff. We mourned the loss of Walter Cronkite, celebrated the recent birthday of Hunter Thompson, drank Great Shark Hunt spiked bottles of mid-shelved whiskey, and shared survival tips on how to navigate the Apocalypse if that job quitting maverick raping ex-Governor Sarah Palin ever manages to pull off another run at the White House and/or nabs a cushy un-fact-checked gig as a winking talk show host, thus dooming the next future reality to moose guts and mass book bannings and grainy US Magazine sponsored Big Foot type sightings of that fucking 'childhood sweatheart' she calls Todd.
Nate Jordon, Monkey Editor and Chief of Monkey Puzzle Press swung by this week and video taped a couple of the performances. I’ve pasted the Youtube links below, along with some links to clips of several other performances by various poets (video taken with much thanks by In Stereo Press) who’s work can be read right here, on Illiterate Magazine Dot Com.
Because it’s one thing to read a poets work, but there are certain pieces that take on completely new super powers when they’re effectively read aloud. So click on the links below and enjoy. And don’t forget to swing by the Burnt Toast on Wed to perform you own stuff and hang out—and check in to the Illiterate Events blogs to keep on top of all the other cool shit that’s going to be happening around the Boulder/Denver area in the next couple months.
And also. Sarah Palin. She's up to something. So watch your ass.
