Portland: “Baddest and Bloodiest”

Published on Thursday, May 31st, 2012

Bad Blood heads downtown tomorrow night (6/01/12) for what promises to be the “baddest and bloodiest” Bad Blood yet. Old Town PDX music venue/bar Valentines, which has become a lively poetry advocate in recent months, will host–a change of scenery from the series’ usual digs at  the cooperative wood and metalworking studio ADX. The reading will feature four poets from far and wide–Mark Leidner, Caryl Pagel, Emily Pettit, and Bianca Stone–as well as DJs Michael Hughes and Erik Hanson for the post poetry dance party.  Bad Blood is curated by Drew Swenhaugen, Joseph Mains and Zachary Shomburg.
