Erotoplasty #2 'live'

Erotoplasty #2 is housing an early performance sequence of mine: Routine Four - Pastoral with Skinhead and National Fronter. I had an impression that #2 couldn't live up to the standard of #1 which is extraordinarily high, but having another look at it I decided it wasn't the poetry at fault but the graphic work with 'sub-Weimar/grand guignol kitsch' aesthetics as I wrote to Colin Lee Marshall. But back to the poetry, it has very fine things, some of the older stalwarts like Drew Milne I'm warming to, and I was taken with David Brazil's oblique religiosity and Tina Cabrera's meditative/conceptual sequence 'Waking Hours'. And it has more from Eleanor Perry's recent series of omnivorously exploratory poems (I call them 'Redacted Poems' as there's a blacked out band where the titles might be) - her work may be the most exciting out there.
