Notes:
The February 17th, 2019 event moved the Words and Music Show over to La Vitrola. When the evening began at 9 p.m., Irish author and performer Rachel McCrum opened the first set with a series of poems she explains will be published in a new book with the working title “Territorial Pissings,” as well as a pair of pieces from “The First Blast to Awaken Women Degenerate” (Freight Books 2017) called “Bury Me At Sea” and “Problems to Sharpen the Young.” Christine Lee premiered an excerpt from a piece called “To Live Forward” that she had been preparing for nearly three years. In the second set, Harold Hoefle read some new poems, entitled “The Stone Mason” and “The Beach,” before reading pieces from his book “The Night Chorus” (McGill-Queen's University Press 2018), including “A Loving Follow-Through,” “The Diver,” “Camping at Lac La Pêche,” “Crossing,” “Worlds,” “Manning Up,” “Ice Fires,” and “Charade.” To close the show, Sam Shalabi performed a twenty-minute solo instrumental set on the guitar and Ian Ferrier read a poem/letter from an ongoing collaborative project.
