Silver City Slam Defends Title!

Sam Castello's picture

On November 15th, the best little slam in the southwest reasserted itself as New Mexico's premier Slam Poetry Team by taking all the bananas at the Wild West Win and You're In Competition.

from ABQ Slam Master kEnn Rodriguez:

"About 80 folks jammed Winning to see poets from Amarillo, Burque,
Oklahoma City, Salt Lake City and Silver City rip it up with one of
the best nights of performance poetry this town has ever seen. Big
props to the out-of-town teams for braving the Interstates to come
help up celebrate the spoken word.
