Touch Me, I'm Sick: Tuesday November 21st

Touch Me, I'm Sick!

"The next Touch Me I'm Sick is being held on Tuesday November 21st upstairs at The Old Crown on the corner of New Oxford Street and Museum Street WC1 (020 7836 9121). The Old Crown is 5 minutes walk from Holborn and 10 minutes walk from Covent Garden and Tottenham Court Road (you can get dinner there too).

This November 'Touch me I'm sick' will feature Former Glastonbury Slam winner and Edinburgh Festival regular Rachel Pantechnicon and Stalwart of British Rock and Roll Gerry Champion.

Five minute floor spots will be available on the night first come first served. Come and have a moan if you think your pain means enough.

The evening kicks off at 20.00ish and will cost you nothing—the bar is open till late."

P.S. Just in case you don't know who's who....

"Rachel Pantechnicon has been reading her poems in
public places for a long time, but prior to 1999 it
was chiefly in the London Borough of Merton, which
doesn't really count. She now specialises in
motivational poems for people and for cats. She has
recently returned from presenting her one-woman show
"Rachel Lets Her Emotions Run Away With Her" at the
Edinburgh Fringe, which saw her finally stepping out
from the shadow of ukulele-player Liz Bentley and just
being herself."
