Monday, June 2, Green (7 pm)/ First Monday Poetry Slam ($5, 8 pm).
Green, featuring Rob Dewey on piano, Rich Casey on bass and Spencer McGinnis on drums, has been holding down early Monday nights at the AQ for over five years.
A favorite American television show becomes a favorite of the summer Slams in a hilarious poetic parody.
Three rounds of crazy performance poetry with commentary on each poem by a celebrity panel (TBA). Yep – our very own Paula, Simon and Randy will be on hand to mock or praise each poem.
Round 1) The Audition Round Your worst poem – performed as poorly as possible.
Round 2) The Cover Round Cover a piece by a favorite poet.
Round 3) The Final Round Your best poem – performed as well as possible.
Anyone can sign up to compete. Costumes are not only allowed – but encouraged.
