<h3><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">February 8th Revisited</font></h3></center>
<p align="justify"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Heck of a night at the Poets' Asylum this past Sunday night
with an overflowing open mic and a feature by Two Sensitive Guys <b>Sam Teitel
</b> and <b>Steve Subrizi</b>. Thanks to the gang from Lowell who paid us a
visit and shared their words in the open mic. Do come again.</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Sam and Steve performed a well practiced set with quieter
work mixed with slam ready performance pieces. Adding a bit of guitar back-up
just uped the fun quotient. With pterodactyl, zombie babies, preaching poetry
and a call to Batman they filled the our minds with something new and more to
think upon. Thanks for the words guys; it was worth the wait.</font></p>
