   About The Absinthe Drinkers
The Absinthe Drinkers spawn catchy, original pop/funk/rock/whatever songs from works of literature ancient and modern. The Drinkers have funkified Baudelaire, punkified Shakespeare, and rockified a number of modern writers. The Drinkers also project original video during live shows, completing the facial orifice stimulating trifecta. They're still working on smellivision. realeditorbest profile toolsrealeditorbest profile tools

Fucking interesting,boys! Concept and sound. I've been putting off poetry for so long. My plan is to start with Whitman. Never did visit the Poe house when I lived in Philly (is it Spring Garden St?). Is there a Twain house too?
