Hackney Central Bar,
Mare Street,
E8 Sunday
One off event
Rating - 2/5
Mixed poetry/comedy/music. £5 plus collections. I felt sorry for the poets: the amplification and lighting were poor, timings all over the place (with MC Baden Prince jr trying to keep order), and the audience (for which there was far too little seating) talked loudly through the poetry – the musicians had much longer sets and were given far more appreciation.
