I spoke with Blair, the maker of the SoHo website, and
Mason of the
soundboard last night, as well as Henry Conley about
this. There was
quite a buzz about it from the crowd, and the other
musicians there to
do their songs... Gary Frankfurt is signed up to do
his set, which
includes Tom Waits, Niel Young, and ealry Springsteen
cover, as well as
a couple of mine he arranged music for, including
"Dream Tears" [Gary
has a heartbreaking spanish guitar riff for it]:

Dream Tears.

Spanish guitar flutters.
It was 1895 or so,
I was in a dream.
I met my bride on Saint George Street,
sweet brown nameless bride.
In the big clapboard city market house,
train station dream place.
Her eyes and smile,
her sparkle of wit, my dream wife.
We sit with happy conversation.
Across the huge room,
I see the drunken unreconstructed rebel.
Swearing and pushing people.
I nod to her
that it's time for us to slide.
We cut through the side room bar area,
crowded ---
I look back,
my heart sinks,
She is not behind me.
I don't see her anywhere,
among these happy ghosts.
I step out on this street,
waiting, looking,
no sign of her.
I step back in.
Coming through the opposite
far entrance I see...
The parade of proud klansmen.
It all becomes clear to me,
they took her.
My sweet smiling nameless bride.
I step back onto Saint George street,
salt breeze and fish smell in the air.
I sit with a group of fellow ghosts,
beaten and grey under an awning,
and I cry --- floods and torrents of tears.
Spanish guitar flutters.

Anyway, Blair and Mason will get with you on the facts
of what's
needed, is the email address here usuable for them to
contact you? If
not, slip me one and we can get you technical guys on
the same page,
while I set up an artist list for the first episode...


I think it would be great if you eventually launched
your own internet
radio network, call it "us.arts.poetry.radio" or
something...
