July Listings, Game on for 9th

Hello all,
Sorry this is a bit later than usual but I've been busy
pretending to be a rock star in Denmark 'n' stuff. Because of this I
didn't get to tell you about the Tall Lighthouse show last week which
didn't really matter because the place was RAMMED and Baden made a
brilliant job of supplanting me mas poetry uber-host.
HOWEVER, due to yesterdays events I was close to
cancelling tomorrow's show, but not anymore. After chatting to the
venue and the poets I am happy to announce that THE SHOW WILL GO ON.
Floor spots will also be open, and I am willing to announce that
anyone who wants to read should be able to, though I will wittle it
down to one poem per floor spot if the demand is high. It would be
really cool if people could make it down because the line up is
another cracker, see below for details.
Finally, The Cellar will be taking a break for August and
there will be no show on the 30th July. We will be back with a
vengeance with many great line-ups and the second Cellar Slam from 3rd
September.
All the best as ever,
Niall
