Notes:
The recording of the October 22nd, 2017 Words and Music Show begins in the midst of a reading by Lisa Richter, which included poems entitled “Disbelief,” “The Intruders,” and “Inscription.” Kathy Kennedy made a brief appearance to announce a sing-along event called “Urgence Chantée,” after which Kelly Norah Drukker read “October,” “Blow-Ins,” “Burial Ground,” “The Hunter’s Path,” “Storms In Spring,” and other poems from her award-winning book “Small Fires” (McGill-Queen's University Press 2016). Al Mader, also known as The Minimalist Jug Band, performed a series of poem-songs, ending with “Problems In A Box,” a special request from W&M Show host and series organizer Ian Ferrier. In the final set, Marcel Petunia played original country music songs showcasing his yodelling skills. From the event poster, we know the show was produced in collaboration with the Quebec Writers’ Federation and The League of Canadian Poets, that it began at 9 p.m. at Casa Del Popolo, and that April L. Ford also appeared, though her performance is missing from the recording.
