Band MembersThe winners from various slams are listed to the right in the blog section - their MySpace accounts have been linked when available.
The slams began in Bend, Oregon by the charity of The Grove and by of work and effort of Jayhoo Ray who hosted the monthly competitions for four years with intermitten co-hosts Sean P. Hill, Andrea and Mary. Host torch was passed to c.vance in November of '06 who hosted for three years and found the slam a new home, The Silver Moon Brewery, after the closing of The Grove. It is now the largest and longest running slam in Oregon. Thanks to everyone who has supported us over these years and has kept it alive - new - interesting - and a shitton of fun.
As of December of '09, the slam has been hosted by MOsley WOtta until such time he can find some fool to pass it onto...

I can already feel the draw, the suction, the lure of poetic voices.
I know that soon I will succumb to the tautness to be drawn to heaven.
