Hullo, found you on youtube, I've just started reading ma poems recently, do you only do the west end?
If you ever need someone tae read for ten minutes, I would be happy too; also I seen Dennis (is it Collins) at Tchai Ovna on Southside, really good with his steal guitar and song. Glad to find his video on your youtube. You know if he has a website or a book or some such?
Hope to hear from you.

Hi there Seeds how are you all? I wondered if you might be interrested in performing your poetry at A Secret Policeman's Ball the Glasgow University Amnesty society are holding on the 6th December? Its basically going to be a night full of comedy and entertainment raising awareness of the 60th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. I am the mian organiser of this event but wer hope to receive help from Amnesty U.K. closer to the date of the event.
It would be great to have you guys perform, i beleive your unique performance style would fit in perfectly with the tone of the evening.
Let me know what you think
best wishes
