THIS
IS THE BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT! MAY 2012 SPECIAL EDITION INVITATION
That
means, prizes, yes, prizes, for poetry, special prizes for poetry
And
The Batman
Because
we want you onstage with your 2 minutes, your original material, and your no
props
ALL
SO YOU CAN WIN AT LEAST ONE OF OUR THREE, FOUR, MAYBE FIVE FIRST PRIZES
You
are The Batman
Now
in the interests of keeping this succinct this invitation will tell you about
prizes
Yes,
prizes, if you win we won’t send you to perform for some totalitarian regime,
but that’s okay
Be
The Batman
No,
instead we give you special prizes, maybe things from SOMEONE’S BACKYARD, maybe
things broken in IMPACT COMICS, maybe things no person wants to buy in MIND
GAMES, maybe something free that they can’t sell at SMITHS ALTERNATIVE
BOOKSHOP, and maybe a tasty bbq’ed thing from GORMAN HOUSE MARKETS, who knows?
BUT
IT IS ALL ABOUT NOT COMPROMISING YOU
Just
ask The Batman
So
typically these invitations are verbose, extended, drawn out and non-sensible
or nonsensical, but because this month is a very special month the invite is
not any of those things, no
The
Batman
Being
not that, it, this invitation, is now going to tell you about the feature acts
This
month we have two feature acts, YES TWO
Not
The Batman.
We
have the SONGTRON 8000
“SONGTRON
8000 appears as the Emperor SONGTRON 8000 in Remembrance of the SONGTRON 8000s,
with his white and gold SONGTRON 8000s now based on Skaro and termed
"Imperial SONGTRON 8000s", fighting against the grey "Renegade
SONGTRON 8000" faction. By this time, SONGTRON 8000 has been physically
transplanted into a customised SONGTRON 8000 casing. Both Skaro and the
Imperial SONGTRON 8000 mothership are apparently destroyed when the Seventh
Doctor tricks SONGTRON 8000 into using the Time Lord artefact known as the Hand
of Omega. However, a SONGTRON 8000 on the bridge of SONGTRON 8000's ship
reports that the Emperor's escape pod is being launched and a white light is
seen speeding away from the ship moments before its destruction, leaving a
clear route to bring SONGTRON 8000 back in the future.”
AND
WE HAVE.
She
is the Batman
But
not to be outdone by bringing the age old enemy of the Doctor to
BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT!
We
also have ARCHIE (aka Robin Archbold)
“Robin
Archbold has been variously described as electrifying, heartbreaking,
wonderfully romantic, hilarious and inspirational, and is the only performer
ever to have won the Woodford Poetry Slam and the Woodford Storytelling Award.
Equally at home at outback poets’ breakfasts, late-night burlesque bars in the
cities or the main stage at the Sydney Theatre Company, he can entertain and
move your mum, or the boffins at the biggest poetry festivals in the country.
He’s a multi-slam winner, multi-festival feature performer and workshop
presenter extraordinaire. You never know where the ride will take you, and you
won’t care.”
YES,
that is correct, both ROBIN ARCHBOLD (aka ARCHIE) and the SONGTON 8000
We
are The Batman
So
join The Master of Conflict, JACINTA, The Score Adder, Andrew Galan and The
Sacrificial Poet at the Phoenix for a 730pm signup for your original words with
no props or music on stage for two whole minutes to win prizes, prizes, prizes
THIS
IS SPECIAL
Listen
to The Batman.
