Day after the show = hot new video!

Yesterday, we enjoyed the first Stone Pigeon of the spring with a great show starring Ryk McIntyre and Adam Barone. We have three videos from each of them, as well as a bonus video from the open mic hour, starring George Jack! As always, gentle readers, the videos can always be found at StonePigeon.com by clicking on "Video", and are also mirrored at our Facebook Group... which, by the way, if you're not a member already, please sign up! We just broke the 80 member barrier. Next stop, a cool 100, eh?

Anyway, enjoy the videos!

Crackskull's gets some attention

So, there's this wicked chill, roundtable-style reading that happens once a month. On the second Thursday of the month at Crackskull's Coffee and Books in Newmarket, to be exact. Great atmosphere. Really loose. Banter between and about poems. Good times, man. And... not enough people know about it. We're working on that.

As part of a project that's going to see these same performances running on Newmarket's public access television channel, we've got 8 spankin' new videos for you! These and more can always be found at StonePigeon.com, just by clicking on "video"!

April 13th Stone Piegon

On Monday, April 13th at Breaking New Grounds, Portsmouth, from 7 to 9pm, we've got another great show with two more great poets!

Ryk McIntyre is a three-time National Poetry Slam Team member, as well as co-host at the Cantab Poetry Reading. He has toured nationally and in Canada, opening for acts as varied as Leon Redbone, Andrei Codrescu and Jim Carroll. He has performed his work at Boston's ICA, New York's New School and Lollapalooza 1994. He has been published in "Short-Fuse - An Anthology of New Fusion Poets", "100 Poets Against the New World Order", "Nth Magazine" and "The Worcester Review"

Adam Barone makes his living at the keyboard, by writing headlines and copy that motivate people to buy stuff. He was a finalist for the 2008 New Hampshire Slam Team, and is the bassist for a new rock band called Mary's Ghost. He currently resides in Newmarket, is single, but taken, loves peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, drinks mostly Redhook ESB and Cranberry juice with no sugar added.
