La poésie est une arme chargée de futur … et elle ne tire pas des balles à blanc ! Pour vous en convaincre, rendez-vous à la Cantada, le vendredi 24 juillet à 20h. Pour la modique PAF de 3 euros, offrez vous une performance poétique inoubliable. Interprétation viscérale, métaphores incisives et propos percutants, le Poétique Gladiateur se livre à vous dans l'arène. Pascal Perrot, l'enfant illégitime d'Artaud, de Tex Avery et des situationnistes, offre une poésie pamphlétaire, ancrée dans notre temps, exigeante ET populaire. Attention ; ce spectacle peut nuire gravement à la bienséance et au confort intellectuel …
Vendredi 24 juillet à 20h : Attention poète dangereux ! de et par Pascal Perrot. La Cantada, 13 rue Moret, 75011 Paris. M° : Couronnes ou Ménilmontant. PAF : 3 EUROS

I am now recording for a new set of releases called the "Persona Series". These cassettes will be commissioned works (not by content, but by payment) for individuals. If John Smith in London, England wants his own Zebulon Kosted album, I will make a 45 minute album (one side of a 90 minute tape), 2 hand drawn mini posters, I will name the album after him (Zebulon Kosted - John Smith), and the fan will retain all rights to the recording (for use of any future release, sampling, or broadcasting rights). One copy of the album will remain in my personal collection, and one will be sent to the customer, so that the only copy that will be in circulation will be John Smiths copy! Each album is available for the ridiculously low price of $10 (not including shipping), and will be shipped in its completed form no later than 6 weeks from the date of purchase!!!
