Partying, Partying, Woo!
If I could be anywhere on Earth in the next couple weeks, I would be in Southern California to celebrate the release of
Don't Blame the Ugly Mug: 10 Years of 2 Idiots Peddling Poetry
:
The release reading will be Wednesday, April 13 at the Ugly Mug, 261 North Glassell Ave, Orange, CA.
Hosts Ben Trigg and Steve Ramirez have created something powerful and important there in Southern California. Readings that last that long are rare, and readings that last that long and have hosted such a wide range of new and established poetic work are even more rare. Even after all of these years, "Two Idiots" remains my favorite reading in the country, not least because Steve and Ben are two of my favorite people. They care deeply about poetry, and about community, and realize the two aren't mutually exclusive. This reading has been the heart of Southern California poetry for years, and here's wishing them many more years of doing great work.
