The 2015-2016 Vic Slam Season begins

Welcome all!

Last night we had our first Slam of the 2015-2016 Season.

Matthew Christopher Davidson hosted and it was wonderful to get back into the swing of things.

We had new-comers and old-timers at the mic.
We had Calla the ukelele.
We had 5 fine judges and we had some in the audience who've never seen a slam before.
We had Steven J. Thompson and Audrey Lane Cockett as our Sac. Poets.
It was a fine time.

The 9 competitors were, in order of points high to low-

Candace - 28.8 + 30 = 58.8
in a recent retrospective survey/calling himself captain obvious
Pamela - 29 + 29.3 = 58.3

Tom - 29.4 + 28.4 = 57.8
