I slacked off and forgot to do this update last week because I am lazy! Tomorrow night is the semi-finals! I also like to use exclamation points a lot!!!

From Steve:

Just a reminder that tonight we have the semi-finals for team selection to attend the National Poetry Slam 2006 in Austin TX, where you will be subjected to 105 degree temperatures in the middle of pouring rain, largely at your own expense. If this sounds like fun to you, come on down to the Ann Arbor Poetry Slam tonight. It will be one of the best shows of the year.

We have a special surprise, fresh off his recent 24 hour marathon feature, Scott Woods will be the MC tonight. We might even coax a poem or two out of him.

All poets who have won or finished second in an Ann Arbor Poetry Slam since May of last year are eligible to compete tonight. We will narrow the field to the top six for the finals next month.

Remember doors open 7 PM. Show starts 7:30 with an open mic. And, because the DJ gave up the ghost we are permitted to say…In Ann Arbor we will leave no poem unread…

Come prepared to see the best performance poetry available in the city. You won’t be disappointed.
