Happenings
It's been a busy couple of weeks since my last post:
Scott & I caught the Springsteen solo concert at the ACC on July 14 ... according to Scott, over half of the songs he performed in this sparse style are now Scott's favorite versions ever!
On Saturday, July 16, I entered Stuart Ross's Poetry Boot Camp for the day. The man is no false advertiser: he worked us hard and taught us all kinds of fun techniques for tapping the well. Thanks, Stuart!
We also managed to take in the AGO's current exhibit The Shape of Colour on Sunday, July 17. We loved it so much, we plan to visit again before the show closes on August 7th.
Later the same afternoon, we wandered up and down Bloor Street, enjoying the Annex Patio Art Show. I was especially taken with Anna-Lea Boeki's photographs ... we both loved Andrea Nesbitt's watercolours.
This past Sunday evening, we were at the Art Bar to hear Marty Gervais read. Bravo! taped the reading for their Heart of a Poet series. The episode featuring Marty's work is scheduled to air sometime this fall.
Next stop was Sneaky Dee's for two fabulous sets by Aidan Baker and Picastro.
Tonight, we're off to the 4th annual ART BAR POETRY SLAM (hosted by Jill Battson) ... unfortunately, I won't find out who wins until next week: THE AMBiENT PiNG gets rolling at 9:30 pm with Planet of the Loops. Tonight's show features Andrew Aldridge and Aidan Baker (no such thing as too much Aidan Baker!!!).
