Readings attended 2012

Evan Karp went to at least 134 poetry readings in 2012! 

So I counted. I only went to 41, wait 42, forgot Quiet Lightning, wait 43 I forgot David Brazil, Eleni Stecopoulos, and CJ Martin at the Niebyl-Proctor Marxist Library. OMG. Oh, he says "literary events" but anyway.

School seems to have slowed me down a lot. 42 altogether, only 9 between Sept-Dec.
