Saturday Night With The Poet's Haven episode 4 is now online! This episode features poetry by Jay Zornes, Byron Milbury Jr., Champagne, Le Key, Elizabeth Cusma, Kel, and Michael Lee Johnson and music by Dakota Kincer.
The next Saturday Night With The Poet's Haven open-mic will be July 12 at Lake Anna After Dark in Barberton, OH! This is a 21-and-over event. Poets wishing to read at the open-mic can register in advance at: http://om.PoetsHaven.com
Okay, the podcast is complete and assembled. I could probably write ten pages listing everything that delayed completion (some good things, like booking another open-mic, details announced soon) (some bad things, which I won't go into for fear of actually writing those ten pages).
I will have the files uploaded and the feeds updated tomorrow (Sunday). I've been jumping between two computers since 10 AM and can barely keep my eyes focused.
This episode contains poetry from the June 21st open-mic at Muggswigz. Dakota Kincer is the guest musician. One phone/e-mail submission from Michael Lee Johnson was able to be included. Those of you waiting for your phone submissions to get into a podcast, please be patient. With the expanding number of open-mics we're doing, there will be plenty more podcasts coming in the weeks and months ahead.
BTW, you do all know about the podcast phone line, right? Toll-free, records your poetry reading and sends it to me so I can put it in the podcast or even play it at an open-mic if I need to schedule a break... If you're too far away to attend one of the open-mics, you can call 1-888-811-0041 to read for the podcast. If enough phone submissions come in, I'll even put together a podcast with all phoned-in poetry. :-)
Okay, I need my 6 hours sleep so I can start updating XML and compressing audio...
A new podcast episode is on the way, featuring poets from last night's open-mic at Muggswigz. It will most likely go online next weekend.
For those of you too far from north-east Ohio to come to a live Poet's Haven event, you can still read your poetry for the podcast! Call (toll-free) 1-888-811-0041 and read just like you would at an open-mic.
While I am still working on booking more dates at Cleveland locations, I can confirm that there will be a Saturday Night With The Poet's Haven open-mic on August 23rd at 8:00 PM at the Phoenix Coffee Company in South Euclid. :-D
