One of my favourite events on the calendar, Bad Slam! No Biscuit! returns to the Phoenix in Civic tomorrow night.
Here’s a taste of the madness via Facebook.
BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT!
The Fifth Instalment of the Fourth Quadrilogy of the Eighth Trilogy brings you BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT!
BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT! is a poetry slam.
And as the Queen says,
“Have you been playing a long time?”
And we say “yes”
And she says
“It’s all to do with the training: you can do a lot if you’re properly trained.”
And we say “Yes!”
Then she says
“Like all the best families, we have our share of eccentricities, of impetuous and wayward youngsters and of family disagreements.”
Then we get bored as she rabbits on some more and we all fall asleep.
