I'm thick therefore I'm calm

Tonight sees a return to the International for more poetical fun and frolics. This time you can actually watch live on line. The link is here - hope you all log in, 8.30 - 9pm Irish time(ish)... no excuses!

There's a very impressive line up - which in the know muso types are very excited about... I'm just glad for my special ignorance of anything musical which leaves me completely unworried(ish) about sharing a platform with the likes of

Ray Heffernan: http://www.myspace.com/rayheffernan
Readers Wives: http://www.myspace.com/readerswives
Berries Blue Cork: www.myspace.com/berriesblueband
Robin James Hurt: http://www.myspace.com/robinjameshurt
Anthony Furey: http://www.myspace.com/anthonyfureymusic
Al Marshall: http://www.myspace.com/musicmystique
Maggie James Hurt

So tune in tonight for what might well be the last time I ever say poems in public - I've never seen myself perform, so if the camera works and I get to see a playback... there's a chance that I just might never say a poem in public again!!!

:( 8:30ish Irish time is 3:30ish Ohio time and I'll be at work still. Pooh. Don't suppose I can watch a recorded version? I'll check the link when I get home (our web security won't even let me go there here at work).

Bug - like I say - think there might be a reply later - try that link anyway when you get home - they go on pretty late - so it might still be in full swing when you get back, though I usually try to get on early so I've the option of getting home again.
