Outlaw Poets

Wow, what a fantastic night at the Lyttelton Times Cafe. A good crowd turned out to see a special night of poetry celebrating the Beats and their legacy. The 'pot-luck' format worked out pretty well after all - and the night ended with an incredible 3 voice reading of Ginsberg's 'Howl', 'America' & Corso's 'Bomb'.

You shoulda been there. Seriously.

Featured poets were:

Andrew Coyle
Ben Brown
Marissa Johnpillai
Doc Drumheller
Ross Brighton
Ciaran Fox
Phil

Special thanks to Andrew for helping organise the night and the Lyttelton Times Cafe for getting it together for us.
