Well, I am heading off for the week to walk the city from my mind… and when I return, SpeedPoets will be kicking up a storm.
Brisbane’s longest running poetry event, SpeedPoets keeps fanning the flames of poetry at InSpire Gallery Bar (71 Vulture St, West End). October will feature spoken word dynamo and multiple Slam winner, Robin ‘Archie’ Archbold. The last time I saw Archie perform was at the Goolwa Poetry Festival where he popped a button in someone’s drink. It was very special!
Here’s a clip of Archie performing at the Lismore Poetry Cup:
There will also be the regular live sounds from Sheish Money, free zines, raffles/giveaways and the hottest Poetry Open Mic Section in town. So be sure to pack a poem or two in your pocket and get yourself heard!
SpeedPoets, Sunday October 3, 2:00pm – 5:30pm, InSpire Gallery Bar – 71 Vulture St. West End
featuring:
Robin ‘Archie’ Archbold
Entry is a gold coin donation

Thanks for the introduction to this poet…an interesting reading.
oh I am angry at myself for not making it to any of these events while I was in Brisbane…looks like a great night coming up.
