The first slam at The Front for 2010 is on Thursday 25 February.

Meanwhile, I also wanted to let you know about a couple of interesting poetry websites I’ve been to recently. The first, myslam.net, is a slam community set up by Wolfgang, a German slammer, with excellent coverage of slams around the world, particularly ones in western Europe. I’ve done my bit and added the Traverse slam to the map (I’ll flesh out the details page soon). The site seems like it could be very useful for connecting slammers in Australia (particularly touring poets) so I recommend you join up and pass on the details on to other slammers.

The second site, Poetry, Pure Poetry, is more geared to online collaboration and has some very exciting features to assist in running poetry groups. It’s all very new and fresh at the moment but looks like it could be an excellent tool for the poetry community – check it out!
