…featuring Aaron Trumm & Reed Adair Bobroff! Billy writes,
Friends,
I am excited about tonight's Poetry at The Range! Bill Nevins is traveling in Colorado & Northern New Mexico, so he asked me to guest-host for him. I am especially pleased that Aaron Trumm, will be exercising his 13-month-old Shiny Lungs with some great poetry, plus (if what's been emanating from his room recently is any indication) some tunes self-accompanied on guitar! I am also thrilled to hear, for my first time, a performance by Diné poet Reed Adair Bobroff.
Should be a great evening! (More details below)
