Tomorrow's the first slam of 2009, but that's not the only reason you should go. I can't - prior commitments - but I wish I could. Go because there's a bus strike. Go because it's winter. Most of all, go because they'll also be raising money to help support Steve Sauve - "the joker king of poetry" to quote Danielle Gregoire - who's in the hospital for some major emergency surgery. Steve's already kicked death's ass once, and he's a survivor, but things are going to be hard for him and those who love him. They'll be collecting donations at the door to help them with some of the costs.
Mercury Lounge, tomorrow, doors at 6:30.
