Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Great to see things like this outside Galway for once. Galway's glutted with poetry readings, and it's great to see Noel again.
"Galway's glutted with poetry readings" and most of them are vastly better attended than the shambolic affairs organised by Fred Johnston, Galway People's Resource Centre's longest serving Community Employment Scheme participant.
The nastiness of 'Ray' is familiar to anyone who has had to deal with small children in a school playground. He obviously has problems and none of them are with Mr Johnson. There's an anger there that goes deep. He looks at a video of some good poets and lovely music and his first reaction is hate. Trouble with this sort of damaged goods is that they infect other people. He's frightened above all, and hides behind fake names. More to be pitied.
