El Sotano Oralidad Poética

---

Spoken work poetry in Spanish. It was so beautiful! I got there a few hours early and sat in the comfy lobby listening to jazz/poetry records as the rain fell outside the open front door. Then I snuck downstairs to hear a gorgeous 4-piece jazz ensemble practicing. I had no idea that Sean was going to join me until he popped in next to me in the back row. We crept upstairs and enjoyed enormous, delicious cheeseburgers just in time for the poetry to start. The speakers were incredibly captivating and talented, but we got a bit worried when one of them started calling out members of the audience to answer questions in Spanish : ) Luckily we were spared. After the performance, we went outside and Sean was chased down by a very enthusiastic crazy lady trying to get his business. She even chased our cab, knocking on the window! I wish I got a photo.
