Last week Shawn Killaly, Super Robertson, JLS, Chris Johnson, Fire-Man and the audience of poets put on a show to a full house... It was a double poem moment night, and if you don't know what that means i can no longer help you... how does the saying go... you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink? For the record "poem moment" is when the audience writes a poem by passing around a sheet of paper and the group has to preform it over improv grooves.
For the most part the show consisted of Shawn and I running through the set that was written on a coffee filter so that we would have proper preparation for our recording session that happened over the last weekend. Would you go into a studio without any rehearsal? We essentially did, which i believe worked in our favour and i'll blood any bastard that say's otherwise... To be perfectly honest i believe not being a band in the traditional sense is the way to roll for a guy like myself, and doing the Super Robertson Supper show for years has trained me well to understand the elements needed... a lot of philosophy for sure but i just remembered something i have to do.
On Movember 17 the SRSS special guest is Angela Latham and apparently she is up for some improv... so lets get some poets noses down and do this right.
Did you ever hear my poem about noses?
People who put their nose in things that break noses
end up with broken noses
A little bone Scarborough wisdom for you all... now i have to get me some free tickets...
