About Me


Come join your Slam Master and Slam Mistress Wonder Dave and Allison at Kieran's Irish Pub on the 2nd Tuesday of every month for the SlamMN poetry Slam! OR every 1st, 3rd and 5th Tuesday it's Five Minutes of Fame! the Twin Cities' only competitive open mic night.
SlamMN! is the only certified poetry slam in Minneapolis. Held at Kieran's Irish Pub on the 2nd Tuesday of the month with doors at 7:30 and the show at 8:00.(The open Mic starts one hour later on non-slam nights)The competitive slam season runs from late August/early September through April. From May-August, the slam team hosts themed fundraiser slams to help pay their way to the National Poetry Slam.The slam is at an all ages venue, however, since material is not screened or censored, not all material is appopriate for all ages.
Congrats 2008 SlamMN!'s National Team:
Tom Reed
Cynthia French
Wonder Dave
Sam Cook
Allison (Coach)
Kick some behind at Nationals in Madison WI!
Throughout the 2008-2009 Slam Season SlamMN! will send competitors to 3--count them--THREE National Tournaments!
Any woman that places in the top 3 at a WoWPs qualifier tournament (the three summer slams that were designated such and any slams from the season opener until the second slam in January) will be qualified to compete int the WowPs Selection Slam. This slam will be held on the fifth Tuesday in January. The winner will represent SlamMN! in Chicago at the first annual WoWPs tournament. It will be held in March.
Qualify to be on the SlamMN! 2009 NATIONAL TEAM.
SlamMN! will be sending a four member team to Nationals in MADISON, WI in August 2008.
To qualify you must place in the top 3 during a regular season slam. This will qualify you to compete in Semi-Finals (which are held the second Tuesday in December or April depending on which half of the season you qualify). If you place in the top 6 at semis, you will be qualified to compete in Finals on the fourth Tuesday in April. The top 4 poets will make up the SlamMN! National Team. The team will fundraise throughout the summer to keep out of pocket expenses low or nothing.
