BLU at Poetry Scores reading: Wednesday, June 13th

Photobucket A blog about a blog about a reading happening soon? Yep. See Chris King's description of the upcoming Poetry Scores event at THE ROYALE on Wednesday, June 13th I've been writing and I'll be reading some of that new work...and drinking some of the fine beer selections offered at THE ROYALE I might read this piece for a goof, and because it reminds me of a night when I was working at a pub with Robert Goetz, who might be able to come up with a guitar riff or two to dress it up...and we used to record and do late-night radio together, too, so this will be somewhat of a reunion.

I, of course, did not perform that goofy piece printed here. Handed it over to Robert Goetz, though. He got a kick out of it.
Great event!
K. Curtis Lyle walked into the courtyard as I was in mid-reading and laid down his magic right after.
Wow!
