Basically, the contest was to use all the words in a setlist in a poem. It's kind of a classic writing exercise, and I thought it'd be interesting with Fruvous setlists. I used Mike's setlist from the early 1-2 show in NYC, which I have tucked in a notebook. I tend to forget it's there, when it slips out, it makes me laugh at the thought that I have it.
