Def Poetry Submission Info

Pasing this along.....

Fellow Poets,

I thought the easiest way to get the message out to as many poets as
possible would be to send an email to all the poets who run or help
run their perspective scenes.

For all those who wanted to get their chance to send in a tape for
the upcoming season of HBO's Def Poetry here it is.

Format for tapes/DVDs(no audio cassettes, please!!)
2 poems performed in front of a live audience
(no longer than 5 minutes in length for both poems)
Name and contact info necessary
all the bio stuff is not

Tapes will be accepted until the 21st of September

Where to send them:
Shihan Van Clief
c/o Def Poetry
5923 Willoughby Ave #1
Los agneles, CA 90038

Now, I know there are a lot of poets who aren't interested in
submitting a tape(for whatever reasons) but that doesn't mean other
poets in your scene should not be allowed to, and since you guys/gals
are the contacts for each city, I ask that you please pass this info
to whoever's interested.

Thanks for your time
