DIY POETS Quarterly Gig – May 19th – 7:45 @ THE MAZE, NOTTINGHAM
It’s been a hectic few weeks for DIY POETS with the formidable success of the International Womens’ Day event at Rough Trade Nottingham which raised a chunky bit of money for relevant charities, a trip to Birmingham for a gig with a community choir and Frank churning out more published volumes of his work. On the grapevine, it’s becoming legend that volume 7 will actually be available before volume 6 – Frank is clearly travelling in the Tardis of poetry publication. Look out for his work, it’s now available at Five leaves Bookshop, as well as at DIY Poets’ gigs.
The May gig sees Hazel Warren in the featured poet slot – a relatively fresh face to DIY Poets who has quickly become a mainstay – her verse is insistent, quirky, compelling and puts a smile on yer face, and we’ll have a selection of the usual suspects for a warm up, as well as an appearance from the mighty Mouthy Poets!
Music will be from the always excellent Paul Carbuncle.
