long time no update!

Well, it's been awhile. What kept us away? Let's see: Reloading the Can[n]on: Kingston Dub Poetry Festival, a very successful weekend that happened at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario and the upcoming Dub Poets Collective Reading Series.

The 2007 Edition of the reading series - ROOTS AND BRANCHES - will continue DPC's commitment towards forging dub-driven artistic links across genres, generations, cultures, and literary traditions.

The first event, February 16th's Reading and Open-Mic with S.T.E.P.U.P. and special guest straight from Jamaica, Owen Blakka Ellis. The dubbing vibes were on that night, and we thank all that came out to the Urban Arts' Y-Arts Space for support.

The next reading series event will be occuring this March with the Canadian pioneer of dub, LILLIAN ALLEN at the Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD).

For those that missed the Kingston Festival, don't despair! In April, we will have special performers from the festival as well as Mr. Oral Transmissions himself, CLIFTON JOSEPH.

So start checking the DUBBLOG again! We'll be keeping you up-to-date on all future reading series events.
