All right stop, collaborate, etc.

Eric Ziegenhagen's punny joke last night was that we were at the Goat Show, but he was a little hoarse. Sore-throatedness aside, Eric did a bang-up job organizing the casual party/potluck/salon/variety-show in the Collaboraction loft space, which has this pretty sign by the door... ...and which is full of art and comfy furniture...
...and which felt like hanging out cozily in some really fun living room: Sadie Rogers sang some beautiful songs... ...Matt Kerstein of Brighton MA played a solo show, and I read an excerpt from Live Nude Girl, plus--in the collaborative spirit--three poems I co-wrote with Elisa Gabbert. The chair I sat in while I read--story-time style--is pictured here, in the mirror to my left: Lots of thanks to Eric for coordinating and to Collaboraction for hosting!
