Slammin' in the Belfry III, April 26

We'd really like to put about 12 new slam poets on stage this year. The idea is a 2.5-5 minute riff or rant with the winner by audience vote taking home the tip jar. We've had standing room crowds at Beans two years in a row, and the winners each year have been folks who do not consider themselves "poets."
It's that piece that has been running through your head for awhile now;  pro-marriage equality, advocate for foster kids, love story, or what you should have told the ****** when he fired you. You tube has plenty of examples if you don't let the national competitions intimidate you.
We're doing the Monday night drop-in poetry workshop at Beans, and would love to coach and encourage. Every year we feel like the audience includes people who say, "I could do that" or "I know someone who would be great."
If we're going to hold the date and do this, though, we need to hear from anyone who is even remotely interested, and as soon as possible. I hope we can get enough participants, and we'll guess at whether that can happen based on the responses we get over the next week or so.
