The "Lix and Kix Poetry Extravaganza" held its debut show at the 806 Martini and Wine Bar in the historic Tremont neighborhood of Cleveland on Tuesday, October 7, 2008. The theme was "Live and Uncensored", and Lix and Kix rocked and shocked with erotic, political, and irreverent poetry, original songs and music, and a bit of theater. Since then, it has become a regular event, rocking the house the third Tuesday of every month. Hosted by Dianne Borsenik and John "Jesus Crisis" Burroughs, Lix and Kix events are getting a reputation for their excellent featured readers, always-interesting open mic shenanigans and gawd knows who knows what else. Come check us out every third Tuesday at 7 pm. Our new location is Bela Dubby Art Gallery and Beer Cafe, 13221 Madison Avenue, Lakewood, Ohio.

Dianne Borsenik and John "Jesus Crisis" Burroughs will be attending the Crosby Mint Farm benefit from noon to 4:30 on Saturday 15 August in St. Johns, Michigan, and performing poetry at some point during that time frame. We'll be driving four hours each way to be a part of this very special event, and we very much look forward to seeing you there!
Wow those videos look awesome on the page. I wish you-tube would look that good. It posts in wide screen with out black bars. I've been trying to get my videos to fit the you-tube screen but I'm having trouble. So you can post Facebook videos now? They change stuff all the time.

I had a great time listening and reading last night. Just hanging out. So sorry I missed the main attractions and other poets. Need to set my watch ahead for next month (LOL)! Peace, Marlana-Patrice
