Roar Stage spoken word performance space at Stowed Out festival 2016 could be yours

A little bird tells p&g that there is a spoken word appearance up-for-grabs on the Roar Stage at the Stowed Out Festival 27th August 2016.

Free festival pass, t-shirt and something towards your travel expenses - not to mention the chance to perform alongside a fantastic soon-to-be-revealed line up of spoken word performers. Last year Harry Giles, Calum Bannerman, Sara Clark and Colin Will all appeared - to name a few. And Harry even stole the main stage...

And of course now there is a train. More on this year's Stowed Out here:

Calum Bannerman wins the inaugural Stowed Out Poetry Slam 2015

Calum Bannerman was a clear winner today in what is perhaps the first competitive spoken word slam in the Scottish Borders. He wowed with poems on his addiction to his girlfriend, a sweet and violent revenge and why we should write poems about him. A no paper performer - p&g is very much looking forward to his set at the Stowed Out Festival . He will be joining Harry Giles, Colin Will, Rab Wilson, Sara Clark, Bridget Khursheed, Dorothy Alexander and Thomas Clark on the Roxxap Roar Stage on the 29th August along with runners up Stuart Jones (with his memorable poem The Kidnapping of Gary Linker) and David Hendry.

The event took place at Mac Arts in Galashiels - a really memorable venue for spoken word. And respect to all the contenders - the standard was excellent. p&g looks forward to more and more slams...
