Shane Koyczan in the Globe & Mail on Saturday, April 28th
In this Globe and Mail article from Saturday, April 28th Shane Koyczan is mentioned as being a leader among Canadian poets. Dave Silverberg, founder and host of Toronto Poetry Slam, notes that poetry is “gaining some cachet here and there… [Shane Koyczan] opened for the Violent Femmes at Massey Hall.” Photo by Michelle Mayne.
Shane also toured with the legendary Rheostatics in 2005 which included the mind-melting final show at Richard’s on Richards in Vancouver where Shane joined the Rheos for an amazing set within a set (pictured above).
The article ends by noting that poetry’s “not going to play at Air Canada Centre any time soon.”
We’ll see about that.
