March 7th Revisited
The Asylum was hopping this week. The new alignment of the space at Jumpin'
Juice & Java has helped with some of the noise issues and we have more space
as well. *Tony Brown* was our feature and Asylum regulars and former
regulars showed up to hear him share his words. Tony offered up something
similar, a mix of older work and more recent pieces. His topics ranged from
old artists to current events, the beloved Punk to a piece inspired by Pink.
He closed the night with the last poem in his new chapbook *About A Boy*, *
Rest*. It capped an excellent night of poetry. Thanks for the words Tony.
