Poetry Open Mic - 15th November 2006 at The QMU
Thank you yet again for the (intimidating) turn out. I’m pleasantly surprised by the amount of people wanting to spend a Wednesday night drinking coffee and hearing poetry.
This success means that, of course, we’ll be doing it again:
8pm Wednesday 15th November 2006 at the Lacuna Café, Queen Margaret Union, Glasgow, Scotland
This coming week we will have Alan Bisset, author of ‘The Incredible Adam Spark‘, reading aloud. Alan is a tutor and lecturer on Glasgow Uni’s very own Creative Writing MPhil course and is sure to be a treat. Of course the usual mix of extraordinarily talented regulars (albeit of only 2 nights), open mic performers and inexplicable interruptions will still be out in full force.
We’re just getting into our stride.
If you wish to read we’ll do all we can to accommodate you. The best way to get on stage is to email toad@toadinmud.co.uk noting your interest, perhaps including a few examples of what you will be reading, and we’ll tell you all you need to know, which isn’t much. Otherwise, just turn up on the night and we’ll find a time for you.
I know it’s the essay season (don’t I know it), but take a break, no one likes unmitigated successes, have some light refreshments and listen to us pour our hearts out.
