About the AS220

I really really enjoy providence slam spot.
I know what you're ALL thinking...
I enjoyed it because i won the slam tonight.
BUT NO. That's not it at all. It's just a really good crowd of people and a great mixture of young folks and older folks and a bunch of folks that fall in between ambiguously. I'm going to keep trying to make an effort to drive out there.

Christa Bell was the feature and she was a fantastic presence on the stage. One of those poets where AS a poet, you learn a little something more about "how to make an audience your friend prior to beginning your poem" Often when i watch a featured poets on stage that I'm familiar with i'll go into "food critic" mode. I already knew i'd enjoy her poetry as I did at the 2005 National Poetry Slam Finals night...But it's always an EXTRA to see a poet pull off a worthy set as well.
She was extremely likeable. Her Outfit was a piece of art too. that was pretty cool.
