What is: Wasps Verses Humans?
The real war on terror, Wasps Verses Humans. They never give up do they? The bastards, no surrender for a wasp. If you leave them alone, they’ll sting you, if you try and swat them away, they’ll bring their mate round and kick your ass. An army of the buggers. It’ll be like Planet of the Apes all over again. Mark my words!
Wasps V’s Humans is a one person project featuring only Carl Antony Plover, combining performance poetry with sound effects; could be the radio, TV, throwing toys around the room, percussion, or guitar. Snap shots of life, recorded, washing up, baby crying, phone ringing. Political and humorous lyrics that look out at the world with a growl and a smile, avoiding the “my girlfriend left me and no one understands” lyrics.
