You are correct!

My publishing company, Patron Saint Press, is publishing a book of his poetry and I'm trying to raise some hype, get some people interested.

I figured there might be a few fans in here.....it looks as though you might be the only one who even has a clue who he is...

he read some stuff before both of the olivia shows in chicago last summer. meh. i could take it or leave it. then again that's all i've heard from him and i'm not a big poetry guy to begin with.

now that i think about it, since i wasn't horribly annoyed by him, that's probably the equivalent of someone who likes poetry giving it a rave review.

Thax is the man. I know I'm not cool enough to open up with poetry for The Breeders, Jeff Tweedy, Olivia Tremor Control, etc.
