February 20, 2010 - Guelph Poetry Slam

Andrea Thompson was the featured speaker and there were many many amazing poets in the Slam and Open Mike, it was a wonderful night. It would take all night to list our favourites, but we have to mention Made Wade who won the $100 prize. The editors, here at The Glass Coin, think he was great. Well earned!

We had a blast. The words flowed freely. The rhythm was true. We love the atmosphere and the energy of the EBar. We don’t live in a world that gives standing ovations to poets, but tonight we came close.

Kudos to the organizers, including BethAnne Fischer and Matthew Dryden for putting on an amazing show!
