  • Western Carolinian November 3, 1994 Features -try Slam, Alan! Earle Wheeler Associate Editor It's not Wrestlemania™, but it is a slam... a Poetry Slam. On November 8, at 8pm, members of the Asheville Poetry Slam (which is fourth in the nation) will be coming to teach the locals a thing or two about slinging verse in the South... or maybe some of our native talent will reveal a few tricks of their own. The Asheville Poetry Slam team is: • Ted Vaca, from Ventura, California: He has performed in Slams since 1986, and was one of the performers for Poetry Alive, which tours the U.S. presenting poetry to high schools and other groups. • Laura Moran, from Providence, Rhode Island: She has performed since 1991, and was Providence Slam Champion. She met Vaca (her husband) in Denver at a Slam. Laura has performed with Lollapalooza. • Danny Solis, from Austin, Texas. He says: "I slam for the love of poetry, and that's it!" Good enough for us, man. • Finally, the featured reader at the opening is Dan Rourke, a former high school English teacher from Cleveland. He came to Asheville to complete a novel, and has been slamming for two years. And now that you know the faces, here's how the heck a Poetry Slam works: • It begins with an Open Mike that isn't for competition. One or two readers... one or two poems each, then the featured reader does his stuff. • Then the Slam begins. The rules: 1. All poetry must be the original work of the performer. 2. All pieces are limited to three minutes, or will be subject to judges' penalty. 3. No props. 4. No music. 5. Check ego at the door. • The judging includes five (mostly inexperienced) judges who score each reading from 0-10, using decimal points to break ties (usually five parts for poetry and five parts for performance). The top and bottom scores are eliminated, and the middle three scores are averaged. • The winner gets ten fresh $1 bills. Wow!!! IN OTHER POETIC NEWS... The Nomad Staff will be presenting a spoken word event in the Cherokee Room on November 22, at 8pm. Entry is free, and anyone who wants to read needs to sign up at the door (those who plan on reading need to come before 8). There will be free espresso and other caffeinated goods to get the local bohemians all worked .UF.
