You are a poet, invited on tour by a popular rock band. Europe!! There will be large audiences. They might be drunk. They might get loud. They might not understand English. It’s the opportunity of a lifetime…Now what? Journey with American performance poet Derrick C. Brown on his career-defining tour opening for indie rock band Cold War Kids. Part troubadour, part troublemaker, Brown’s mission is to inspire others to embrace life and fearlessly write their brains out. He also has a lot of books to sell in order to pay his mortgage. He battles loud, sometimes indifferent audiences with humor, song, romance and a uniquely weird way with words - whatever it takes to get them to listen.
