I was thinking of doing either poetry or performance poetry. But I don't know much.... ok, anything about performance poetry. Do many people do it? And if you have done it, can you tell me some of the 'tricks of the trade'?
:D

yeah true. I know what you're saying. There is this really funny band 1-2 response, the poetry is ok... but the guy sounds like the biggest drama-queen. I don't want to be that melodramatic.... it obviously didn't do him any good!

Has anyone actually done PERFORMANCE POETRY for their major work?!

ye4ah. It's about suicide. And it says things like:
"Mother- it was not YOU
Father- you could not stop it"
etc.
After I heard it I couldn't get the guys voice out of my head all day! SOOOOOO IRRITATING!
SO.... some one help me out here?
Does anyone know ANYTHING about performance poetry?!?!?!?
