Blow-Out Kills One

Night 1 of the 3 day blow out was awesome. Hopefully some blow-by-blow later, but a quick note of some highlights:

- The possibility of Chris Ewart placing his novel. An announcement soon?

- Jocelyn Grosse and James Dangerous with the most unexpected and exciting reading of the night. Music and cryptic local literary references! But I am no pimp, Jimmy Danger.

- Sandy Lam rolling in the snow. And rocking.

- A beautiful reading by Jill Hartman, contextualizing A Painted Elephant within a wider look at some of her early work.

- A subdued but still wonderful performance from Frances Kruk, showing that she doesn't need a ton of equipment to turn in a great performance.

Sleep now.

I wouldlike to add that Jocelyn's kickass performance also featured free stuff for the audience -- and I was one of the lucky buggers who snagged w wicked t-shirt. RATTAS LIBRES!
