Glen River Summer Poetry Readings
Information on the readings will be updated.
As the weather warms up, I turn my energy to a poetry reading series. I will
provide an amplifier and microphone. Even in a small venue readers have the
opportunity to use a whispered word when the mic is available. I will be recording
many of these sessions. Eventually they will be posted on the web. Anyone with a
suggestion for venues, please e-mail with the info.
The format is simple. I will open with light guitar music and some conversation.
Then, to adjust the setting, I will read a few select poems of other poets work.
Depending on how many poets are in the house, I will either go to the open mic, or
do a set of my poetry/music and then do the open mic. A signup sheet is provided.
The basic expectation for readers is 3 poems or 10 minutes.
Changes in the format will depend on the desires of the core audience.
