On Sunday night we went to Back To Mine to see the changing of the Bard of Bath.
I was keen to go - live music, poetry, a relaxing Sunday evening - perfect.
A few other people obviously had the same idea and the club was actually quite busy with a really good atmosphere. I was kind of expecting only a handful of creative writing students and a few stuffy old poetry enthusiasts to be in attendance but thankfully I was wrong.
I think the attendance and the atmosphere prove that poetry and spoken word are still hugely relevant to peoples lives today. Poetry is cutting edge and something that we should be seeing more of on the streets, in our pubs and clubs and in the media.
Highlight of the evening for me had to be the Bard of Glastonbury. Excellent, honest, intelligent and funny in just the right places.
In other news, I have (or will shortly be) uploading a new track to my Tapper myspace profile. The new track is called The Promise.
