Thanks for putting this together, Mark!

You know I was born in Frederick? Wish I were able to be there tonight (at first I thought it was last night...then I saw I still have time, but couldn't drive from Connecticut down fast enough)...poop.

Blessings to you all for a wonderful evening...and if I ever retreat home to MD, I'll hope for another opportunity to hear you all.

Peace!

I have a few photos, Mark... Just need to get them off my camera. I'll post them here once I do. I don't have many, but a few.

It was a blast! Thanks so much for inviting me to perform! I enjoyed every minute of it and it was great to hear your fabulous performance and be surrounded by so many talented poets and musicians. Will is wonderful! And I was way impressed with DJ Babylon as well as the guy the did the very funny, very short pieces! He cracked me up. Everybody was good. I always enjoy Goodloe's music also....

Thanks again for inviting me! Looking forward to next time. xoxo

Gotta run to the store to get batteries for my camera. They're dead. This evening, I'll get all the photos I have off the camera and posted here. (I don't have any of me. haha :P)

Well that's because it's hard to take photos of yourself when you're on the stage... heh ;)

I got a few of you, Mark! Coming soon. (I hope... still have to hook up my camera to my computer to see how they came out... it was sorta dark in there.. we'll see)

the darkest of venues is cafe nola for sure.....i have to play with shots from there on photobucket all the time...usually something comes of some of them...the thing to do is give your camera, or mine to somebody not to drunk when you perform and have them take shots....i did do myself on video w/plaeground at minas gallery last year and it was not too bad.....i've tended to get away recently from takin shots and vids and concentrating on my performances more....

OK, here are all the photos I have. Sorry but my memory card got full so I missed a lot of people. I'm obviously not shown here because I was behind the camera. hah! But I was there, I assure you! I got up on stage and did my thing 2x and I even got a laugh or two 'cause I was so funny looking. *smile*

Mark if you know the name of the artist who did this artwork, let me know so I can properly credit him or her. Also, if you could tell me the names of the poets whose names I didn't know, let me know so I can edit to credit them.
