Yours ever faithfully has just accepted an invitation to read at “Beat Night at The Mudpuppy” on Saturday, February 12. For those of you not hip to the lingo, “Beat Night” refers to an evening of poetry and music, a throwback to the beatnik gatherings of the 50’s and early 60’s – social precursors to the hippie generation. And “The Mudpuppy” is Amherstburg’s own arts and culture gallery at 264 Dalhousie Street. The shindig goes from 7 to 10 pm, which will be interesting since I’m usually in bed by 9:30, but a little shot of expresso and some two-sided sticky tape on the old eyelids should do the trick. It promises to be a totally cool happenin’, daddy-o, so be there or be square. OK, I’ll stop now…
