Music and Spoken Word Poetry from the wonderful Mr Alan Bissett who will be your MC for the evening, music from Craig Lithgow and TradYes, spoken word from Martin O’Connor, the wordsmith that is Jenny Lindsay (read her on National Collective here and see Rally and Broad here & here @msjlindsay), plus more toons from Findlay Napier, plus the multi-talented Julia Taudevin who cavorts about the twittersphere as @splatpest & Kieran Hurley who goes by the more conventional moniker of @kieran_hurley – and finally DJing from Mr Johnny Gailey of Wiff-Waff fame.
