[wpvideo ifE5vcNp] Desperate For... Love is a reading series run by the poets Wolfy Jones and Alan Hay. It is an excellent reading series and well worth the trip down to Brighton from London, nice people, excellent poets, good music, low lit venue... what more could you want. This recording was made on Sunday 1st March after I took a trip to the beach with Klatch. There were many other poets reading at the night. The readings are held at Komedia, 44-47 Gardner St, Brighton BN1 1UN and the next Desperate For... event will be on May 12th and will feature the poet Francesca Lisette.
