This weekend, Tysheka "Spoken" Long will be hosting the spoken word concert Tale Me More, along with the Njozi Poets. Performers Black Magic, Howard Smith, Priscilla Parker-Hill, Lonnie Harrell, Ntare Ali Gault, Wise Mecca, and Rain Bethel-Cooper will all also take part (Smith and Gault were among the winners of the recent Buffalo Poetry Slam). According to Long, who has been very active in the city’s poetry scene for the past five years, this is not the usual literary event: “This night will challenge your definition of a poetry reading." Tale Me More will be presented at Hallwalls on Friday (Sept.29) at 8pm. Advance tickets are available at Locust Street Art Classes and at the Allen Street Connection
