January is proving fun and fruitful on the performance front. With Tongue in Chic looming this weekend, things are really looking up. Last night though was our second trip to Coventry for poetry at the cozy Tin Angel pub. Well attended again, although I think we knocked spots off them even more than last time. High-tempered debates from the moment ( Read more... )

And it happened, 7th December, Poetry Kapow as organised by Fay and myself, with the invaluable assistance of a few dedicated others. The poster was gorgeous, so everyone I asked was happy to display it, the Madcap venue eventually came up good, despite us having very little time in there to recce and generally have a tech rehearsal. Lights and ( Read more... )

Hello musicians and music-lovers everywhere!

Just a quick note to say if you haven’t added your thoughts to our www.musiciskorg.com website yet, you might like to give it a go. Read the comments already there and then just follow the link to upload your own. The picture doesn’t have to be of yourself, just an image that represents what music means ( Read more... )

Hold onto your Christmas stockings, boys and girls, as Poetry Kapow Productions need poets of all shapes and sizes to get scribbling, get up on stage and show off at our Seasonal Finale at the Madcap on 7th December.

There’ll be a poetry slam, other competitions, and more entertaining interludes than we’ve even dreamed up yet. But we need rhyming ( Read more... )

So another looong weekend went without a hitch... phew!

Friday night, went out with work, and got very drunk on cocktails, talked and talked and talked like a wind-up toy to some very unfortunate folk, realised I was getting wobbly, gave up and left early, got home, got more drunk and passed out. Oh well, at least it was my own bed!

Saturday started ( Read more... )

well, I haven't updated for ages, so I've decided to tell very little ( Read more... )

Ok... gig on Sunday.

I have 2 tickets and no takers for the 2nd. My fella (much like myself, but, hey, I've committed myself to go, and am looking forward to it) doesn't fancy the predicted THREE HOUR bus ride to London and back to see System:FX / Panzer AG on Sunday.

Ideas, suggestions... .takers??? (system:FX on at 6.30)

Wow, yeah... April. Blimey!

Uh, saw Swarf at the Bridgehouse... They STILL absolutely kick butt, Liz has the most amazing voice, and the music manages to be sweet and gutsy at the same time. And the sound in this teeny-tiny venue is pretty good too, shame it's in a very isolated estate in Canning Town.

Sick and Twisted was effort, and although it was ( Read more... )

Happy easter to all you Chocolate-loving bunnies out there. I'm still *very* unable to eat chocolate without getting serious bellyache... which I know is a good thing as it works a great deterrant, but I do occasionally still fancy the stuff and boy does it bite me back!

still, it didnt stop me enjoying some gorgeous fudgey chocolate cake when we ( Read more... )

Feeling all warm and sunny at the passing of february.... quick update on that:

Valentine's malarky: sent a card to the fella's work-place, which was great because he was teased and harrangued by his more-than-macho pint'o'lager-type colleagues! Thursday night itself was a mess of japanese cuisine (because he is the bestest cook ever!), including ( Read more... )
