No Sam Adams Sold Here Ides of April: Desire April 15 Elbo Room 2871 N. Lincoln Ave $5 On April 15, 2002 the second iteration of the Ides of Month occured in the dark recesses of the Elbo Room's basement. Poorly equiped poets kept indigenous troglodytes at bay with broken beer bottles. The evening consisted of loosely assembled pieces of poetry, performance, and music. The lineup included poetry by Kate Schwartz; songs by Andy Levin and Steve Levin; improvisatory music by Kotaro Seki, Andrew Kapsalis, Larry Brown, David DelCiello, and Zebulun; Ian Chipman's poem, "Desire", adapted and directed by Andy Fife, featuring Carissa Johnson, Julia Hathaway, and Dave DelCiello; and Kelly Lewis's poem, "The Pomegranate", read by Laura Forbes, with slides by Carissa Johnson. Through a bizzare variety of circumstances beyond the reckoning of the present author Julia Hathaway, Dave DelCiello, and Andy Fife embarked shortly after the performance on a road trip of epic proportions to perform "Desire" in New York, NY, to wide vernacular acclaim.
